I have setup a BIND DNS server and a munin monitoring system which is configured to monitor BIND as well. The OS is Ubuntu Server 12.04.4 and the BIND version coming with it is 9.8.1-P1.Munin runs every 5 minutes, and executes the bind command rndc stats, which is spamming my bind log files with this message:29-May-2014 01:30:04.070 general: info: received control channel command 'stats'29-May-2014 01:30:04.073 general: info: dumpstats complete29-May-2014 01:30:04.150 general: info: received control channel command 'stats'29-May-2014 01:30:04.150 general: info: dumpstats complete29-May-2014 01:35:03.112 general: info: received control channel command 'stats'29-May-2014 01:35:03.112 general: info: dumpstats complete29-May-2014 01:35:03.229 general: info: received control channel command 'stats'29-May-2014 01:35:03.230 general: info: dumpstats complete29-May-2014 01:40:03.183 general: info: received control channel command 'stats'29-May-2014 01:40:03.185 general: info: dumpstats complete29-May-2014 01:40:03.348 general: info: received control channel command 'stats'29-May-2014 01:40:03.348 general: info: dumpstats completeIs there any way to fine grain BIND logging and exclude ONLY this message?Please note that I don't want to reduce the severity for general log messages, but only disable/exclude this specific message which is really flooding my log file.Below is my current logging configuration:logging {        // reduce log verbosity on issues outside our control        category lame-servers { null; };        // Use severity dynamic for debugging        channel b_default_log {                file /var/log/named/bind.log versions 30 size 1m;                print-time yes;                print-category yes;                print-severity yes;                severity info;        };        channel b_resolver_log {                file /var/log/named/resolver.log versions 5 size 1m;                print-time yes;                print-category yes;                print-severity yes;                severity dynamic;        };        channel b_config_log {                file /var/log/named/config.log versions 5 size 1m;                print-time yes;                print-category yes;                print-severity yes;                severity dynamic;        };        channel b_edns_disabled_log {                file /var/log/named/edns_disabled.log versions 5 size 1m;                print-time yes;                print-category yes;                print-severity yes;                severity dynamic;        };        // The query.log is needed for munin monitoring        channel b_query_log {                file /var/log/named/query.log versions 20 size 10m;                print-time yes;                severity info;        };        category default { b_default_log; };        category resolver { b_resolver_log; };        category config { b_config_log; };        category queries { b_query_log; };        category edns-disabled { b_edns_disabled_log; };};
Is it possible to stop specific BIND Log messages from being logged?
