I remember I did that recently, it should indeed be $(nsd-checkconf -o database /etc/nsd3/nsd.conf) instead. I had a bug report about that because if no database is there, nsd3 may fail to start IIRC, which makes the package not install properly or similar. Of course, with a chroot this will work bizarely at best, but I do not support such a setup yet. I'll try to amend the init script and just let it not trying to be smart when a chroot is used (which I can know using nsd-checkconf -o chroot) Meanwhile, just comment that line out in your setup. -- Intersec <http://www.intersec.com> Pierre Habouzit <[email protected]> Tél : +33 (0)1 5570 3346 Mob : +33 (0)6 1636 8131 Fax : +33 (0)1 5570 3332 37 Rue Pierre Lhomme 92400 Courbevoie -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
