named.root is in /var/named/etc/namedb and contains the same as my
bind 9.6 on current. adding an ls to named.root
ls -l /var/named/etc/namedb/named.root /etc/namedb/named.root
-rw-r--r-- 1 bind wheel 3074 Jun 28 2010 /etc/namedb/named.root
-rw-r--r-- 1 bind wheel 3074 Jun 28 2010 /var/named/etc/namedb/named.root
I can't find any major differences with this and 9.6 that works fine.
when I try to start it notes that it isn't running and isn't abel to start.
Thanks for any suggestions.
I am running
7.4-PRERELEASE FreeBSD 7.4-PRERELEASE #1180: Wed Jan 26 04:33:51 CST 2011
Thanks,

Unfortunately, I don't have any answers to this problem. I only
know that the same thing happened to me when I tried to upgrade
from the older, no-longer-supported bind9-3
[My solution was to reinstall the older bind9 ]
I am running 7.3, altho that shouldn't make any difference... .
