This is potentially a stupid question, but is there a known issue with the rc script which controls named under FreeBSD 5.2.1? Running on an internal-only network where queries are received from machines I control on a home network, I get spurios errors such as: bsd# ./named status named is not running. bsd# ps x | grep named 11342 ?? SLs 0:00.51 /usr/sbin/named -c /etc/namedb/named.conf 11596 p0 RL+ 0:00.00 grep named bsd# and bsd# ./named start [: /usr/sbin/named: unexpected operator Starting named. bsd# ps x | grep named 11603 ?? SLs 0:00.05 /usr/sbin/named -c /etc/namedb/named.conf 11605 p0 RL+ 0:00.00 grep named bsd# I had originally set up this system with the Linux compatibility layer enabled which also resulted in complaints about ELF processing. These errors occur with bind 9.3.0rc4 (source install) and with 9.2.3 (ports install). I'm very confused and have stepped through /etc/defaults/rc.conf /etc/rc.d/named trying to trace the error to no avail. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated. This is not running in a chroot.
