For example: s2# sh /etc/rc.d/named stop Stopping named. Waiting for PIDS: 278, 278, 278, 278, 278, 278, 278, 278, 278, 278^C s2# kill -9 278 s2# sh /etc/rc.d/named start Starting named. They're running bind 9.3.1 -- I'm in the process of bumping one of my boxes up to FBSD 6.1 to run the latest and greatest named to see if this resolves things, but is this otherwise a known issue? The servers are authoritative for about 75 domains each, and only do recursive lookups for our network. Any ideas? If this was just on a single machine I'd scratch my head a bit less here. Please reply to me personally, I'm not on questions@. -Dan -- --------Dan Mahoney-------- Techie, Sysadmin, WebGeek Gushi on efnet/undernet IRC ICQ: 13735144 AIM: LarpGM Site: http://www.gushi.org ---------------------------
