At present, I'm running all of my zones on a single instance of bind. But I don't like that. I have internal zones which I don't want the outside world to know about. I have restricted access by using allow-transfer and allow-query but I want more separation. I tried running two instances of bind on the same box by using the listen- on option. When I start the first instance of bind I get: named[56043]: listening on [192.168.1.1].53 (ed0) named[56043]: Forwarding source address is [0.0.0.0].53 The second one gives: named[56046]: ctl_server: bind: Address already in use named[56046]: listening on [192.168.0.20].53 (ed1) named[56046]: opensocket_f: bind([0.0.0.0].53): Address already in use I don't understand why it is trying to listen on 0.0.0.0. Any clues? I'm now beginning to think that a better solution is to have two name servers. One servicing external requests, the other servicing internal requests. The external one would be non-recursive. The internal one would be rescursive. Does that make sense? cheers -- Dan Langille - DVL Software Limited [I'm looking for more work] The FreeBSD Diary - http://www.freebsddiary.org/freebsd/ NZ FreeBSD User Group - http://www.nzfug.nz.freebsd.org/ The Racing System - http://www.racingsystem.com/racingsystem.htm unix @ home - http://www.unixathome.org/ To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
