securing BIND


Besides chrooting named (which is a fairly easy tasks FYI) you should tune your named.conf for security also - as described very well in http://www.cymru.com/Documents/secur...-template.html, this also references to quite some other useful documents regarding BIND and security

BTW, you can view the BIND 9 Administrator Reference Manual at http://www.crt.se/dnssec/bind9/
