We are using a different DNS solution than the directadmin named setup. Is there a way to have direct admin stop warning me that named is down?

/usr/local/directadmin/data/admin/services.status

change:

named=ON

to:

named=OFF

and stop named from starting upon boot:

chkconfig named off

Hello,

DA will still call:

serivce named reload

so you might want to edit:

/etc/init.d/named

and just add: exit 0;

to the very top of the reload part, so that DA will think everything is fine, while nothing will be run.

nice... thank you.

Is there a way to my own applications to this file?
 
Not sure....... but probably not (without adding some extra code-for example how to understand if it its down or not etc)

However, there is always sim (for xinetd and anythinng else you want :) )
