BIND9 port
Well, I know BINd8 ships with FreeBSD, but I wanted to install BIND9. So I installed the port. Unfortuantely it didn't tell me where it expects the namedb dir to be, it didn't put a startup script in /usr/local/etc/rc.d like other ports do.. Is this normal? Should I just create my own and wing it? To Unsubscribe: send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with unsubscribe freebsd-questions in the body of the message
Re: BIND9 port
if u want 9 to be started instead of 8, youll need to mod /etc/rc.conf to get the right values in there.

Mostly right, although bind9 doesn't like the '-g' flag, and the port will install it into /usr/local/sbin and you'll probably want to explicitly define where the named.conf file is: named_enable=YES named_program=/usr/local/sbin/named named_flags=-u bind -c /etc/namedb/named.conf Cheers, Matthew -- Dr Matthew J Seaman MA, D.Phil. 26 The Paddocks Savill Way Marlow Tel: +44 1628 476614 Bucks., SL7 1TH UK To Unsubscribe: send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with unsubscribe freebsd-questions in the body of the message
