How can I monitor what IP/domain name my machine send request to?
The machine has a DNS server installed. Can I monitor all requested domain name through that? Or, is there any other way independent from DNS server, through which I can monitor all requested IP/Domain name?

Thanks,

To enable query logging in Bind 8 or Bind 9, you should add the following to your

named.conf configuration file:

logging {
channel query_logging {
file "/var/log/named_querylog"
versions 3 size 100M;
print-time yes; // timestamp log entries
};

category queries {
query_logging;
};
};
