What is line 6 of your /etc/named.conf and why is named looking for this rather than /etc/namedb/named.conf as specified. I have the portsversion of 9.3 with DLZ on my laptop as a testbed and it works fine with named_program="/usr/local/sbin/named" named_flags="-c /etc/namedb/named.conf" named_chrootdir="/var/named" named_enable="YES" So my guess is permissions or configuration file issue Vince > _______________________________________________ > freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list > http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions > To unsubscribe, send any mail to > "freebsd-questions-unsubscribe@freebsd.org"
