I installed bind using the default settings in the
installer. I successfully generated a rndc.key file. I
needed to populate the etc folder, so I downloaded the
Ubuntu version of bind and extracted the contents of /etc
and put them in Windows version of etc. I went through
the files one by one and replaced Linux paths with Windows
paths. So bind starts then immediately quits. The error
report is below. I have included my config files. I am
using bind only as a recursive revolver as my ISP DNS
servers are super slow and they do DNS hijacking. I don't
want to use any other DNS server other than the one
running on my machine. I want to run my own DNS server
for fun. So what could be wrong, what did I miss.
