I have named executables in both /usr/local/sbin and /usr/sbin So I changed the line in /etc/rc.conf that read: named_program="/usr/local/sbin/named" to named_program="/usr/sbin/named" and rebooted the box. So far, so good. named -v gives me BIND 9.3.0 and in /var/messages the reboot info shows the same when named loads: Jul 11 13:40:50 netlink kernel: Mounting root from ufs:/dev/da0s1a Jul 11 13:40:50 netlink named[293]: starting BIND 9.3.0 -u bind -c /etc/namedb/n amed.conf -t /var/named Jul 11 13:40:51 netlink named[293]: command channel listening on 127.0.0.1#953 (It's also picking up the command channel, so I guess I did that right). I have one last problem (or at least I hope so!). I maybe ought to ask this in a bind newsgroup, but there are enough folks on this list running bind on FreeBSD that someone ought to know. Evidently Bind 9 doesn't like my zone files whereas Bind 8 was OK with them. A little background: My main domain name is jellico.com I also host several virtual domains using IP based virtual domains in Apache2. So each of my virtual domains has been assigned an IP address out of my Class C. In /etc/namedb/M (the directory where I keep my zone files that this DNS server is master for) I have (among other zones) jellico.com.db which is my forward file for the domain and 26.44.208.in-addr.arpa which is the reverse zone file for the domain. I have always had my virtual domains configured into my forward file (jellico.com.db) so as to enable forward DNS resolution on those. They are configured into jellico.com.db like this: jellico.tn.us. IN A 208.44.26.225 multi-226 IN A 208.44.26.226 multi-227 IN A 208.44.26.227 multi-228 IN A 208.44.26.228 multi-229 IN A 208.44.26.229 multi-230 IN A 208.44.26.230 tspma.com. IN A 208.44.26.231 copperhill.com. IN A 208.44.26.232 multi-233 IN A 208.44.26.233 www.jellico.net. IN A 208.44.26.234 multi-235 IN A 208.44.26.235 stair-way-to-heaven.com. IN A 208.44.26.236 multi-237 IN A 208.44.26.237 kcsvo.com. IN A 208.44.26.238 multi-239 IN A 208.44.26.239 multi-240 IN A 208.44.26.240 wingsofvictorychurch.org. IN A 208.44.26.241 multi-242 IN A 208.44.26.242 multi-243 IN A 208.44.26.243 There are a few others, but you get the idea. I have also always had my virtual domains setup in my reverse file so as to enable reverse DNS resolution on these. This section of my reverse file looks like so: 225 IN PTR jellico.tn.us. 226 IN PTR multi-226.jellico.com. 227 IN PTR multi-227.jellico.com. 228 IN PTR multi-228.jellico.com. 229 IN PTR multi-229.jellico.com. 230 IN PTR multi-230.jellico.com. 231 IN PTR tspma.com. 232 IN PTR copperhill.com. 233 IN PTR multi-233.jellico.com. 234 IN PTR www.jellico.net. 234 IN PTR multi-234.jellico.com. 235 IN PTR multi-235.jellicocom. 236 IN PTR stairway-to-heaven.com. Bind 9 is OK with my reverse file, but it doesn't like any entry in my forward file that ends in a dot (so as not to append jellico.com to it). When I rebooted the box, as soon as the nameserver loads I get these error messages in /var/messages: Jul 11 13:40:51 netlink named[293]: M/jellico.com.db:222: ignoring out-of-zone d ata (mail.campbellcounty.com) Jul 11 13:40:51 netlink named[293]: M/jellico.com.db:224: ignoring out-of-zone d ata (campbellcounty.com) Jul 11 13:40:51 netlink named[293]: M/jellico.com.db:522: ignoring out-of-zone d ata (jellico.tn.us) Jul 11 13:40:51 netlink named[293]: M/jellico.com.db:528: ignoring out-of-zone d ata (tspma.com) Jul 11 13:40:51 netlink named[293]: M/jellico.com.db:529: ignoring out-of-zone d ata (copperhill.com) Jul 11 13:40:51 netlink named[293]: M/jellico.com.db:531: ignoring out-of-zone d ata (www.jellico.net) Jul 11 13:40:51 netlink named[293]: M/jellico.com.db:533: ignoring out-of-zone d ata (stair-way-to-heaven.com) Jul 11 13:40:51 netlink named[293]: M/jellico.com.db:535: ignoring out-of-zone d ata (kcsvo.com) Jul 11 13:40:51 netlink named[293]: M/jellico.com.db:538: ignoring out-of-zone d ata (wingsofvictorychurch.org) Jul 11 13:40:51 netlink named[293]: M/jellico.com.db:544: ignoring out-of-zone d ata (netlink2000.net) Jul 11 13:40:51 netlink named[293]: M/jellico.com.db:549: ignoring out-of-zone d ata (shamrockweb.com) I do, of course, also have separate zone files in /etc/namedb/M for each virtual domain, stair-way-to-heaven.com.db, shamrockweb.com.db, wingsofvictorychurch.org.db, etc. (Finally) here's my question. Bind 8 was evidently quite OK with me defining virtual domains in my forward file as I have done for years. Bind 9 is not happy with this at all. How do I do this in Bind 9? My forward file contains an entry for each IP address of the Class C, I have to call the IP addresses something in my forward file, and that something OUGHT to be the name of the domain that I have assigned that IP address to in order for forward resolution to work correctly. Isn't this right? Sigh, obviously not since Bind is complaining. So how DO I define these virtual domains in my forward file under Bind 9? Thanks for all the help, Lisa Casey
