Hmmm... I chgrp'd the logfiles (/var/named/named_query.log) to 
"named", but it is still busted... I don't get error messages on the 
console any longer, but nothing is being recorded in the log files.

I think I used a "recipe" for setting up the caching name server on this 
box. I thought it was on the OpenBSD website, but I cannot find it now.

Here's how I'm set up. Any comments would be appreciated:

In /etc/rc.conf.local:
 
named_flags=""

In /etc/resolv.conf:

nameserver 127.0.0.1
lookup file bind
nameserver 207.203.159.252

# ls -l /var/named
