SYNOPSIS
bind8_named2dlfDESCRIPTION
This script converts each line in a BIND8 named log to a dnszone dlf record. It is tested using Bind 8.2 logs. We're not aware of any changes in the logging format in any Bind 8.* version, we expect any bind 8.* log to get processed fine by this script.The following lines are recognized:
- approved/denied AXFR requests
- completed zone transfers
- loaded master and slave zones
- denied dynamic DNS updates
DLF format
The DLF format of the dnszone superservice is- server
- Name of the DNS server
- time
- Timestamp for the request
- axfr_host
- IP address of the host requesting the AXFR
- axfr_zone
- Name of the zone being requested
- axfr_what
- approved, denied or axfr
- loaded_zone
- Name of the zone just loaded
- loaded_serial
- Serial of the zone just loaded
- loaded_role
- master or slave
- updatedenied_host
- IP address of the host requesting the update
- updatedenied_zone
- Name of the zone being updated
Due to the nature of the different meanings of the lines in the logfile (not every line has both a AXFR-request, loaded a zone and gotten an update request), one or more fields can be replaced by a 0 or a -. These fields are automaticly filtered out for the different kind of reports.
Example of DLF lines are:
- AXFR approved
- tim 1026644876 10.10.10.1 algron.com approved - 0 - - -
- update denied
- tim 1026645567 - - - - 0 - 10.in-addr.arpa 10.199.16.218
- master zone loaded
- tim 1026525210 - - - nigelbowen.com.au 2002071301 master - -
EXAMPLES
To process a log as produced by bind8:
$ bind8_named2dlf < named-log
bind8_named2dlf will be rarely used on its own, but is more likely called by lr_log2report:
$ lr_log2report bind8_named < /var/log/named
