  Log:
  SVN rev 200563 on 2009-12-15 05:14:39Z by dougb
  
  The named process needs to have a "working directory" that it can
  write to. This is specified in "options { directory }" in named.conf.
  So, create /etc/namedb/working with appropriate permissions, and
  update the entry in named.conf to match.
  
  In addition to specifying the working directory, file and path names
  in named.conf can be specified relative to the directory listed.
  However, since that directory is now different from /etc/namedb
  (where the configuration, zone, rndc.*, and other files are located)
  further update named.conf to specify all file names with fully
  qualified paths. Also update the comment about file and path names
  so users know this should be done for all file/path names in the file.
  
  This change will eliminate the 'working directory is not writable'
  messages at boot time without sacrificing security. It will also
  allow for features in newer versions of BIND (9.7+) to work as
  designed.
