Well, thanks for answer, but I still get the same problem. I tried to put blackhole out of zone statement in the general area, but the error is still the same:
# grep blackhole named.conf blackhole { spooferz; }; # named-checkconf ./named.conf ./named.conf:18: unknown option 'blackhole' I'm getting rather crazy.... might there be any difference about sparc64 arch? Could you please post your named.conf for reference?
