You probably have it set up to chroot itself so it's not /etc/named.conf that you need to change, it's /var/named/chroot/etc/named.conf or whereever your chroot environment lives. You'll also need to check the directory tree leading to it to make sure it all allows the user to read it.

Hello everyone,
This is my first posting to the list, so I do not know yet if there's a lot of 
activity here or not ;) But any help would be appreciated.

I want to install bind-9.3.3-10.el5.i386.rpm shipped with RHEL5 (Kernel 
2.6.18-53).

The Installation is no problem, but when I try to start the named via 
/etc/init.d/named start, he fails and says:

Jul  7 16:39:20 host1 named: none:0: open: /etc/named.conf: permission denied

I googled around a little bit and found something about chowning the file to 
root:named and setting file permissions to 640. I even gave 777, but nothing 
works.

If I start named directly via /usr/sbin/named he comes up just fine, but 
because of clustering with linux-ha [heartbeat] I need to start it with the 
init.d-script.

What's wrong with that script? I'm not Linux-Guru enough to read trough that 
script and find the error alone :(

So please would anyone give me a hint or tell me what to do, to get BIND 
running.

Thanks in advance :)

Florian

Mit freundlichen Grüßen
