Thought I would share this with everyone who uses BIND 9.

I am a big stats junkie, and I like to know everything that is going on with my VDS (I really need to have my own network infrastructure so I can collect lots of stats :D).

I like the idea of rndc stats in theory because it gives me more data to pour over, but the output can be confusing. Then I cam across this script:

It is a very cool way to look at the data for all DNS queries on your server and even breaks it down by domain. I can schedule this as a cron job and take a look at the stats on a daily basis :).

Actually, there are MRTG plug-ins for rndc stats, so you can make pretty graphs :D.
