Well, I'll try to just answer this one.
I got this when changing from RedHat to SuSE.

Er, maybe it was when I changed from sendmail 4.x.y to 8.x.y
or something.

Anyway, to get rid of it I put a whole load of stuff in the
/etc/named.conf file:

===========================================================
// Logging options.
logging {
    category default { default_syslog; default_debug; };
    category panic   { default_syslog; default_stderr; };
    category packet  { default_debug; };
    category eventlib { default_debug; };

    // ak's additions.
    category statistics { default_debug; };
    category maintenance { default_debug; };
    };     
===========================================================

I think that's how I got rid of the garbage.
It's something like that anyway.

Cheers,
Alan Kennington.
