Len, Fair enough.
When I mispoint the -c option or misname the file I get an error that its not found. When I change the name of a database file in in the named.conf zone definition it doesn't seem to notice. So, yes, I agree that we are reading no data, but it seems to know if its finding the named.conf file or not. It knows (because I also tested) if the "directory" directive in named.conf is valid. the zone files are all readable, I just don't know why I'm (nslint) is apparently not reading them when the prereqs seem to be correct. What prerequisit am I missing?
