I'm not the only one! Whew, I thought I was losing my mind.

I have rngd and haveged running and there is large pool of entropy and I still 
can't get newer versions of bind to start. Very frustrating.

I found that link previously and tried it. It didn't complain about that

not being a valid setting, but it didn't change the outcome. I'm

beginning to believe I may just have to upgrade to CentOS 7. It needs to

be done at some point anyway, I just didn't want to do it now.

resolve this (besides upgrading this box to CentOS 7)?


Try setting `random-device "/dev/urandom";` in `named.conf`.
