I'm using the following named.conf file: "Permission denied" is not an error message limited to file permissions, what you're seeing is the bind(2) system call failing to bind to port 53 on the ip address specified. This usually means that bind is not being started as root. No process is allowed to bind port 53 unless it runs as root initially. > I've searched through the BIND faqs and docs located at the ISC site to > no avail. Everything works correctly, It's just 1) annoying and 2) > possibly bothering my ISP(?).
