Subject: bind9: Log files limitited to 2GB
Date: Fri, 29 Aug 2008 14:48:35 +0200
Package: bind9
Version: 1:9.5.0.dfsg.P1-2
Severity: normal


I activated the query log in order to use "bindgraph" (which parses
aforementioned log). Today, bindgraph just stopped graphing. Looking at
the log showed me that it reached a maximum size of 2GB and logging
would just stop:

root@dns-cbf:~# ll /var/log/named/query.log
-rw-r--r-- 1 bind bind 2147483647 Aug 29 09:01 /var/log/named/query.log

Generally speaking, one wants to rotate log files LONG before they get
to 2GB...

I'll forward the report upstream.
