The current build of FreeBSD 4.4 (prerelease) majorly broke us here. The DNS server cores whenever DHCPD does an update packet (sending a name for a newly conencted or updated IP address) In FreeBSD 4.3 (latest before the bind 8.2.4 MFC) things worked great. In the current 4.4, bind 8.2.4 replaced 8.2.3 and all hell breaks loose. named starts up (only after we remove all of the .log files in its database directory) and then starts to run.

Anyway, as you can see, a simple dynamic update blows DNS right out of the water. No more name server (at which point all sorts of things fail as we get no more lookups of other items, such as the nfs server or the web server or...) Anyway, this is a heads up that 4.4 prerelease is, for our use atleast, DOA. (I have not yet had time to try to track this down - there are some major differences between bind 8.2.3 and 8.2.4 so it was non-obvious at first glance - having had just a few minutes to look into it) -- Michael Sinz ---- Worldgate Communications ---- msinz@wgate.com A master's secrets are only as good as the master's ability to explain them to others.
