Description Petri T. Koistinen 2004-03-07 01:11:06 UTC

User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.6)

Description of problem:
Bind should ship with script like this:

$ cat /etc/cron.monthly/update-named.ca-file.sh
#!/bin/sh
                                                                     
                                                                 
cd /root
wget --quiet --passive-ftp ftp://ftp.internic.net/domain/named.cache
cp /var/named/named.ca /var/named/named.ca.old
mv named.cache /var/named/named.ca
diff -u /var/named/named.ca.old /var/named/named.ca


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
bind-9.2.3-8

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Notice that named.ca is changed.
2. Develop automatic named.ca update mechanism.

this can be a security issue too.
Comment 2 Daniel Walsh 2004-04-06 02:36:17 UTC 
We probably can try to update it via regular updates.
