Hide BIND Version

22 Apr

You can hide the version of BIND you use to increase security.

[bash]nano /etc/bind/named.conf.options[/bash]

Then look for:

[text]dnssec-enable yes;
dnssec-validation yes;
dnssec-lookaside auto;[/text]

Add this line:

[text]version "unknown";[/text]

Don’t forget to restart the service!
