I also found out that restarting from gbindadmin does not produce the same output in syslog as running "/etc/init.d/bind9 start". Something is screwy!

There are two configuration file trees, one under /etc and the other under /var/named/etc, for named. The former is provided by the bind9 package, and the latter I conjecture by the gbindadmin package. Since the latter is designed to run named in a chroot jail, I went with it by modifying /etc/default/bind9 like so:

--------------------------------------------------
OPTIONS="-u bind -c /etc/named.conf -t /var/named"
# Set RESOLVCONF=no to not run resolvconf
RESOLVCONF=yes
--------------------------------------------------

Yeah, it's a good idea to run it chrooted.

I've never used gbindadmin before but it sounds like it wasn't as helpful as it could be. :)
