Just to test a little more, I saved off my config in a tar with: var/named/etc/namedb var/named/etc/namedb/master var/named/etc/namedb/master/internal.rev var/named/etc/namedb/master/localhost-v6.rev var/named/etc/namedb/master/localhost.rev var/named/etc/namedb/master/vmware.rev var/named/etc/namedb/master/mcneil.com var/named/etc/namedb/master/metricmass.com var/named/etc/namedb/master/metricmass.org var/named/etc/namedb/slave var/named/etc/namedb/PROTO.localhost.rev var/named/etc/namedb/PROTO.localhost-v6.rev var/named/etc/namedb/named.conf var/named/etc/namedb/named.root var/named/etc/namedb/make-localhost var/named/etc/namedb/rndc.key Then I tried mergemaster and it deleted my stuff. I thought it might be the /etc/namedb symlink, but deleting that made no difference.
