container issues: file mode in /data/bind/etc and db.root is very old

[sjmudd]

Hi. Thans for taking the time to make man of the docker container issues you use available. I'm using a couple of these as I learn the container environment.

I notice with the bind setup a couple of issues:

• db.root is very old, dated 2016. It would be good to either update the settings or to maybe attempt to refresh them when the container is started. That is have a reasonably new version but the container start would try to pull a new version and if that's successful update the current file and reload the configuration.
• file permissions in /data/bind/etc seemed to show most files as being executable. That makes no sense for files. Please adjust any scripting which setups file permissions on container startup to make these files something like mod 640 or equivalent.

I didn't really have time to look at this properly but a suggestion would be something like: https://gist.github.com/sjmudd/17dac1e6bec9d7c73a6083d4a5e91f1a.

Docker build of your current repo seemed to give me an error:

Reading state information...
E: Version '1.8*' for 'webmin' was not found
The command '/bin/sh -c rm -rf /etc/apt/apt.conf.d/docker-gzip-indexes  && apt-get update  && DEBIAN_FRONTEND=noninteractive apt-get install -y       bind9=1:${BIND_VERSION}* bind9-host=1:${BIND_VERSION}* dnsutils       webmin=${WEBMIN_VERSION}*  && rm -rf /var/lib/apt/lists/*' returned a non-zero code: 100

I don't have time now to follow up on this as still rather new with the container world. Hopefully the suggested patch or similar should fix one of the issues.
