Release Notes anyone? o The BIND nameserver has had its security tightened. The /var/named/ directory is no longer owned by "named", but rather by "root". Slave zone files should now be stored in the new /var/named/slaves/ directory, which is owned by "named". In addition, a new bind-chroot package makes it possible to run the named daemon in a chroot() "jail" (located in /var/named/chroot/) for greater security. -- Alexandre Oliva Enjoy Guarana', see http://www.ic.unicamp.br/~oliva/ Red Hat GCC Developer aoliva@{redhat.com, gcc.gnu.org} CS PhD student at IC-Unicamp oliva@{lsd.ic.unicamp.br, gnu.org} Free Software Evangelist Professional serial bug killer -- fedora-test-list mailing list [email protected] http://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-test-list
