Its also possible that its not set in rc.conf but defaults in either the rc script or /etc/rc.d/named. On my system it appears to default in /etc/rc.d/named.
Hm.. i understand most of this. grep -r from /etc found something
i've never uderstood. "chroot" stuff. to me, root is always / and
root's home is /rrot. I've never dug deeper. here is the named
stuff in /etc/defaults dir:
named_enable="NO" # Run named, the DNS server (or NO).
named_program="/usr/sbin/named" # Path to named, if you want a different one.
#named_flags="-c /etc/namedb/named.conf" # Uncomment for named not in /usr/sbin
named_pidfile="/var/run/named/pid" # Must set this in named.conf as well
named_uid="bind" # User to run named as
named_chrootdir="/var/named" # Chroot directory (or "" not to auto-chroot it)
named_chroot_autoupdate="YES" # Automatically install/update chrooted
# components of named. See /etc/rc.d/named.
named_symlink_enable="YES" # Symlink the chrooted pid file
in my /etc/rc.conf file are the 3 named lines:
named_enable="YES"
named_program="/usr/local/sbin/named"
named_pidfile="/var/run/named/pid"
I dont see anything here that could be messing me up unless by using
the default lines, something is going waaay South.
Lastly, has the /etc/rc.d/named script changed in the past year or
two?
