Dan! I think you fixed something. I haven't figured this
out yet, and would be grateful if you could decode this in

This, after I added your named_flags line into /etc/rc.conf.
Where I get lost is *what* gives me that "none:0" lines??
I see the same or worse err when I drop in bind98. IIRC,
named does run, but the messages log is fulll of rndc.key
error messages that I just cannot understand. _Now_, having
dropped in your named_flags line, I am seeing something
similar.
I haved grepped thru the entire /etc/ tree and haven't found
anything that explains where I messed up....
Ideas?
thanks to you or anybody else onlist.
