I haven't figured this out yet, and would be grateful if you could decode this in /var/log/messages:: Jul 8 20:39:32 ethic named[83003]: stopping command channel on ::1#953 Jul 8 20:39:32 ethic named[83003]: exiting Jul 8 20:39:37 ethic named[84090]: starting BIND 9.3.6-P1 -c /etc/namedb/named.conf -t /var/named -u bind Jul 8 20:39:37 ethic named[84090]: none:0: open: /etc/rndc.key: file not found Jul 8 20:39:37 ethic named[84090]: couldn't add command channel 127.0.0.1#953: file not found Jul 8 20:39:37 ethic named[84090]: none:0: open: /etc/rndc.key: file not found Jul 8 20:39:37 ethic named[84090]: couldn't add command channel ::1#953: file not found Jul 8 20:39:37 ethic named[84090]: the working directory is not writable Jul 8 20:39:37 ethic named[84090]: running This, after I added your named_flags line into /etc/rc.conf. Where I get lost is *what* gives me that "none:0" lines?? I see the same or worse err when I drop in bind98. IIRC, named does run, but the messages log is fulll of rndc.key error messages that I just cannot understand. _Now_, having dropped in your named_flags line, I am seeing something similar. I haved grepped thru the entire /etc/ tree and haven't found anything that explains where I messed up....
