Once it's booted I have to manually startup named. if you built it with the system, try named_enable="YES" in /etc/rc.conf That's the way it is supposed to be. If you somehow managed not to build bind with the base system (for instance by excluding it in /etc/make.conf, or maybe in an older system, dunno how it was before 4.0), the right place to start it probably is /usr/local/etc/rc.d/, but this depends on your installation. cheers, Tobe To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
