But looking now I don't see such an option. On the other hand, I can't see an option in named.conf that would allow that. Isn't there a way to tell named to just ignore/not accept these updates? From the error messages it looks like it accepts them, but they fail afterwards either because of missing permissions to the file or rndc or so. Or is there an dhcp option that would tell the client to stop this? I have "ignore client-updates;" but that obviously is an option for dhcpd only.
