*WARNING* Binary location

Hi,

I ran into 2 issues with CSF that may have been from a recent update. I have these 2 errors whenever I restart CSF;

*WARNING* Binary location for [CHATTR] [/usr/bin/chattr] in /etc/csf/csf.conf is either incorrect, is not installed or is not executable
*WARNING* Binary location for [HOST] [/usr/bin/host] in /etc/csf/csf.conf is either incorrect, is not installed or is not executable
*WARNING* Missing or incorrect binary locations will break csf and lfd functionality


I know in the OS section the settings are;

# Binary locations

CHATTR = "/usr/bin/chattr"
HOST = "/usr/bin/host"


But for my needs, I do not use chattr or host. Is there any way to CSF to ignore these?

I tried setting each to just "" and "" and it still showed the error, and I don't think I could just add # in front of them.

Any ideas or suggestions...or should I just ignore those errors?

Thank You in advance.

try installing e2fsprogs to provide chattr and bind-utils to provide host then restart the firewall

Thanks for responding.

I did install e2fsprogs on one vps. I don't use any bind services so it's not installed, but I have no issues installing them for the sake of getting rid of the errors.
