Basic Pleskian
I have a server with IPV4 and for some reasons when i go to /var/log/messages i get lots of errors from named (bind) that try resolving Ipv6 ips.

In order to fix that, i went to /etc/sysconfig/named and i added a -4 to the list of parameter
OPTIONS="-c /etc/named.conf -u named -n 2 -4" to force Bind to only listen on IPV4 addresses.

Nevertheless, at the next upgrade i wonder if it will be overwritten.

Thank you.
