BIND is logging it, you're just not looking in the right place. Check syslog logfiles (/var/log/daemon.log, /var/log/messages), or you can start it in the foreground and log to STDERR: $ named -g 03-Aug-2003 12:18:11.694 starting BIND 9.3.0s20020722 -g 03-Aug-2003 12:18:11.816 loading configuration from '/etc/named.conf' 03-Aug-2003 12:18:11.817 none:0: open: /etc/named.conf: file not found 03-Aug-2003 12:18:11.817 loading configuration: file not found 03-Aug-2003 12:18:11.817 exiting (due to fatal error) Run it with "-g" and you'll see what's up for sure. My guess is that you have no "named" user. -- Nate "Computers are useless.
