I haven't found any separate man pages or documentation for daemondo .... only "daemondo -h" The interesting issue for named is that when running with the "-f" option it apparently "invokes" or otherwise "prevents" certain kinds of logging. From: http://www.bind9.net/manual/bind/9.3.2/Bv9ARM.ch06.html#id2553006 ------------------<cut here>-------------------------------------- channel default_debug { file "named.run"; // write to named.run in // the working directory // Note: stderr is used instead // of "named.run" // if the server is started // with the '-f' option. severity dynamic; // log at the server's // current debug level ------------------<cut here>-------------------------------------- ... so which file is "stderr" for something running from "launchd?" As best I can tell, it's "/var/log/system.log," but I don't know that for a fact. > In any case, the BIND 9 way of doing things is the "rndc" command, which > works fine regardless of how it's started (you will need to roll an > authentication key though). Figuring out "rndc / key" ... is my "next" project. T.T.F.N. William H.
