Named is causing my server to Kernel panic?

2009-08-27 Thread Scott Baker
I have two DNS servers, and my slave server has been crashing repeatedly 
about once a week. It's crashing hard and bringing down the *whole* box. 
It's a F10 box, running:


:rpm -q bind
bind-9.5.1-3.P3.fc10.i386

Here is a shot from my cell phone of the kernel panic:

http://www.perturb.org/tmp/named-crash.jpg

My first thought is that it was bad hardware, so we swapped the HDs out to 
another server. *Everything* was new except the HDs and the crashes still 
occurred. I'm not sure what my next step is, but having it continue to 
crash is no good! The box is up to date on all software and kernel patches. 
It runs fine while it's up, it just randomly crashes.


Help!

Unable to resolve visitriverside.com

2009-03-03 Thread Scott Baker
I am unable to resolve visitriverside.com with my Bind 9 server. I don't 
have any problems resolving other domains, it just appears to be this host.


http://www.perturb.org/code/dns-tool.php?host=visitriverside.com&type=A

I can't resolve the name servers for this domain either. If I check my 
named.log I see it attempt to resolve and everything looks normal.


03-Mar-2009 08:58:00.505 client 65.182.224.20#42104: query: 
visitriverside.com IN A +


Nothing shows up in the error log... so I'm sort of stuck. Any ideas?

How about:

#Do not let the journals get too big
max-journal-size 512k;

Just out of curiosity, what real world scenario do you have 50 million
records under one domain?
