Dear all, first I would like to apologize for my English as I am not a native speaker. I'm using Debian Woody with the current bind 9.2.0 and I'm trying to put it in a chroot jail. I downloaded Scott's "Chroot-BIND HOWTO" and it worked very well except for a few small things. The chroot jail is set up, the files are moved and starting bind works. :-) The daemon.log tells me:
Feb 13 17:04:39 iridium named[1525]: loading configuration from \ '/etc/named.conf' Feb 13 17:04:40 iridium named[1525]: no IPv6 interfaces found Feb 13 17:04:40 iridium named[1525]: listening on IPv4 interface \ lo, 127.0.0.1#53 Feb 13 17:04:40 iridium named[1525]: listening on IPv4 interface \ eth0, 192.168.0.1#53 *a* Feb 13 17:04:40 iridium named[1525]: none:0: open: /etc/bind/rndc.key: \ file not found *b* Feb 13 17:04:40 iridium named[1525]: couldn't add command channel \ 127.0.0.1#953: file not found Feb 13 17:04:40 iridium named[1525]: zone 0.0.127.in-addr.arpa/IN: loaded serial 1 Feb 13 17:04:40 iridium named[1525]: zone 0.168.192.in-addr.arpa/IN: loaded serial 2002020901 Feb 13 17:04:40 iridium named[1525]: zone home/IN: loaded serial 2002020901 Feb 13 17:04:40 iridium named[1525]: running *a* and *b* confuses me a little. Although rndc.key is in the chrooted /chroot/named/etc/ I get this error message (in addition "/etc/init.d/bind9 stop" tells me "Stopping domain name service: \ namedrndc: neither /etc/bind/rndc.conf nor /etc/bind/rndc.key was \ found". Regarding *b* the shown message confuses me even more because I have never had it before chrooting bind. Do you have any ideas?
