	Actually there was another point of confusion in that Sunday
	working with /etc/ipfw.rules I remembr sseeing the same named 
	errs in /var/log/messages.  --Yes, both my /etc/ipf.rules and
	ipfw.rules were similar; or as similar as I could make them.

	Before I changed ISP's and my namedb configuration, things 
	worked flawlessly.  No err output anyway.

	It was Stacey Roberts' idea that there was rouble in my BIND
	setup that made the lightbulb snap on over my head.   I knew
	that I was breaking some of the 1918 rules; I just ddn't 
	realize that  it would cause *this* much trouble.   ... .

	I think that's exactly right.

	When I first begab running my own DNS (et cetera), I cobbled
	together script that would ring bells and send me mail if
	the critical binaries weren't running:  named, sendmail, inetd,
	httpd, and so forth.  Too bad I didn't save these!!

	Indeed yes; due thanks noted!  This list makes me happy to
	be a nerd

	have a good one,
