Hi there,

I dont have a user name named. I have a user named bind. so bind is what I am going with.

named_enable="YES"
named_uid="bind"
named_program="/usr/local/sbin/named"
named_flags="-c /etc/namedb/named.conf"
named_chrootdir="/var/named"


cheers,

Noah

In the newer versions of bind you need to add to /etc/rc.conf:
named_uid="username"
you want to run named as.

Hi there,

named is not starting when I reboot a FreeBSD 6.2 server and I cant figure out why. there are no error mesasges in /var/log/messages during the boot process.

even when I manually start there are no error messages.
