Re: Default Options
i'd love to hear there is... something like postconf. :-) in the past, i've always read through the options syntax section of each version's ARM to determine current defaults. documentation can get out of date or have errors though, so a command that prints real values would be a useful auditing tool. -Original Message- From: "Manson, John" Date: Tuesday, June 5, 2012 8:02 AM To: "'bind-users@lists.isc.org'" Subject: Default Options >Is there a command for bind that will list all Options default names and >settings in named.conf? >Might be helpful in understanding why bind is acting a certin way. > >Thanks > > > >John Manson >CAO/HIR/NI Data-Communications | U.S. House of Representatives | >Washington, DC 20515 >Desk: 202-226-4244 | Team: 202-225-5552 | john.man...@mail.house.gov > > > > > > >___ >Please visit https://lists.isc.org/mailman/listinfo/bind-users to >unsubscribe from this list > >bind-users mailing list >bind-users@lists.isc.org >https://lists.isc.org/mailman/listinfo/bind-users ___ Please visit https://lists.isc.org/mailman/listinfo/bind-users to unsubscribe from this list bind-users mailing list bind-users@lists.isc.org https://lists.isc.org/mailman/listinfo/bind-users

Not really... if you download and build source, there's a tool that will print all the supported options (bin/tests/cfg_test --named --grammar) but it doesn't print the default settings. But, if you've downloaded the source anyway, the defaults for nearly every option are set in bin/named/config.c -- scroll down to where it says "default configuration" and read from there. -- Evan Hunt -- e...@isc.org Internet Systems Consortium, Inc. ___ Please visit https://lists.isc.org/mailman/listinfo/bind-users to unsubscribe from this list bind-users mailing list bind-users@lists.isc.org https://lists.isc.org/mailman/listinfo/bind-users
RE: Default Options
Very helpful.
The search word in the file is 'options'.
Snippet:
options {\n\
# blackhole {none;};\n"
#ifndef WIN32
" coresize default;\n\
datasize default;\n\
files default;\n\
stacksize default;\n"
#endif
" deallocate-on-exit true;\n\
# directory \n\
dump-file \"named_dump.db\";\n\
fake-iquery no;\n\
has-old-clients false;\n\
heartbeat-interval 60;\n\
host-statistics no;\n\
interface-interval 60;\n\
listen-on {any;};\n\
listen-on-v6 {none;};\n\
.
.
.
.
The file also includes defaults for 'view' and 'zone'.
Thanks

Not really... if you download and build source, there's a tool that
will print all the supported options (bin/tests/cfg_test --named --grammar)
but it doesn't print the default settings.
But, if you've downloaded the source anyway, the defaults for nearly every
option are set in bin/named/config.c -- scroll down to where it says
"default configuration" and read from there.
