Hi all, After the latest security update for bind (which came out last night), now there's a new message on syslog, (facility: daemon, severity: warning) every time you restart named: max open files (1024) is smaller than max sockets (4096) After googling for a while the solution seems to be to add this to /etc/security/limits.conf: named soft nofile 4096 ...and mofity /etc/named.conf in order to add, under the options section: files 4096; That seems to work. Of course, you may raise the 4096 but I guess that's the default in BIND and I was good with that. I'm not sure why this happend. Maybe before the update bind had a value of 1024 for max.sockets and now it was raised to 4096. -- Jorge -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
