I found named-checkconf search-engining, and this found my bind syntax error, yeah!

Is there anything I can do about the logging issue? I was thinking of doing a dist-upgrade to wheezy on my server, but could the logging issue remain after the upgrade? Maybe I should just do a fresh install of wheezy instead? Any advice? Far as I know that messages and syslog not containing info (filesystem not full BTW) is the only problem.

I haven't had a chance to upgrade this system yet.

I needed to update my bind configuration and now it will not start. In the past bind would write errors to the syslog (or messages file, i forget which), but it isn't doing so. Is there another way to get the error messages? All the info I get is a "failed" when trying to restart the daemon, but no clue as to what is causing the problem.

I noticed my syslog and messages files are totally empty,  Going back a few version numbers there was always useful info there, but not any more. Is there a way to increase the level of logging?
