My machine is using 4.4-RELEASE. Were you installing Bind 9.2 from ports? Use the pkg_delete command to remove it. Other than that, erase your /etc/namedb directory? Doesn't the FreeBSD Handbook have a nice chapter on setting up a name server? Go check it out. Also Defcon1.org I believe has articles on Bind. Setting up a basic Name Server isn't that involved. Search the archives, I'm sure I gave a user step by step instructions on how to do this last year complete with zone creation! -Gerry www.interpool.ca To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
