Well, I found an interesting anomoly tonight with webmin and Bind 8 that Jamie solved with no problem. I was adding, manually, a line to the options section of /etc/named.conf: listen-on {10.1.1.53}; ..which bind 8.1.2 (named) allows, but is not precisely accurate. The line should read listen-on {10.1.1.53;}; When I added this line by hand, webmin would thereafter report that no zones had been defined. After adding the additional semi-colon ( as Jamie suggested) webmin operated as expected. The Bind 8.1.2 documention that I have that directly addresses adding this option doesn't say that a semi-colon is required after *any* IP address when using this option, but it does state it is required after any address when using multiple listen-to addresses. webmin follows this rule with one to many addresses in this option. -- Troy Kittrell troyk@basspro.com Internet Systems Coordinator Bass Pro Outdoors Online To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-isp" in the body of the message
