I have looked through archives and can't see any answers to my problem -
I hope someone can help as it is driving me nuts :)
On a system with 2 interfaces, running 2.4.20ctx-17 (RH8.0) , when I run
named 9.2.1 I get the following error:
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:dns /]named -g -u named
Aug 27 13:22:47.554 starting BIND 9.2.1 -g -u named
Aug 27 13:22:47.554 using 1 CPU
Aug 27 13:22:47.560 loading configuration from '/etc/named.conf'
Aug 27 13:22:47.564 no IPv6 interfaces found

int) iter->ifc.ifc_len) failed
Aug 27 13:22:47.564 exiting (due to assertion failure)
Aborted
I run named under strace, but does not show any obvious reasons for the
failure. I commented most things in named.conf with no luck.
I looked at the sources for bind 9.2.0 ( don't have 9.2.1 handy ) and
see the following:
/*
* Get information about the current interface to iter->current.
* If successful, return ISC_R_SUCCESS.
* If the interface has an unsupported address family, or if
* some operation on it fails, return ISC_R_IGNORE to make
* the higher-level iterator code ignore it.
*/
static isc_result_t
internal_current(isc_interfaceiter_t *iter) {
struct lifreq *ifrp;
struct lifreq lifreq;
int family;
char strbuf[ISC_STRERRORSIZE];
REQUIRE(VALID_IFITER(iter));
REQUIRE (iter->pos < (unsigned int) iter->ifc.lifc_len); <<<<
this is failing in vserver
I have added capabilities to the config file, I played with the
IPROOTDEV setting with no luck. I have IPROOT, IPROOTMASK and
IPROOTBCAST commented out ie. they are set by the vserver from
IPROOTDEV. I hope someone has seen this as it might be a big task for
me trying to understand all the bind sources and figure out why the
assertion is failing - any ideas welcomed.
Thanks,
Peter
