Well, I'm sorry your installation seems to be using broken external DNS servers, but people ought to be able to rely on named informing them of potential problems with the FORMERR / lame-server messages. If people decide these issues are not a problem for them or they have no control over the broken servers, then they can easily disable the log message generation as you have done - but I do not agree that these messages should be disabled by default. Indeed, the bind package by itself provides no default configuration - for that, you need to install bind-config, which provides a configuration for a caching nameserver - so it would not be possible or desireable to disable these log messages in the default bind configuration. "Easily" is a big word. It was *not* easy to find how to disable them and the internet is littered with messages of people loosing far too much time on what these messages are and are they dangerous and so on (usually not getting to the disable step). Just google for FORMERR and have some fun with people getting in panic mode Please at least include the commented out block in the default fedora config |
