It's not 100% clear to me what you're trying to accomplish. Can you please go into a little more detail about your goals, rather than potential solutions? > P.S.: named_conf definitions in rc.conf get lost. Yes, that's something that needs improvement. I have it on the list but since it's not common for people to alter the path to the conf file, and since in the past in order to do so you've had to add -c to named_flags anyway, I don't regard it as urgent.
