hello,
i'm using Debian 4.3.2-1 and Apache 2 in my production server. Watching the logs I noticed apache is resolving client's hostnames with 'HostnameLookups Off' in apache2.conf. I want to avoid these lookups so i'm guessing apache is making this dns queries because i have mod_authz_host enabled. When i try to unlink this module i get several modules complaining because they use "Order" directive.
How is the clean way to go? Should I comment all Order directives like
Order allow,deny Deny from all
Is this the only way to stop apache making dns requests ?
thank you!
