Subject:   bind 9.2.1rc2 chroot not starting
Message-ID:  <OE72DGdyoOxg2elKWQT00004c66@hotmail.com>

Hi,

I can't seem to start bind in a chroot environment.  I've checked file
permissions (750), and file ownerships (bind:bind).  I've run
named-checkconf, and named-checkzone with success.  I'm not sure
what's up.

I ran bind 9.2 chroot with relative ease; and after rebuilding my box
and reinstalling the latest version, I can't seem to get it started.
I'm sure it's something simple I've missed, but I'm clued as to what
it is.

# /usr/local/sbin/named -u bind -t /var/namedb/

[ Output from /var/log/messages: ]
Apr 24 03:05:19 ns1 named[212]: starting BIND 9.2.1rc2 -u bind -t
/var/namedb/
Apr 24 03:05:20 ns1 named[212]: none:0: open:
/usr/local/etc/named.conf: file not found
Apr 24 03:05:20 ns1 named[212]: loading configuration: file not found
Apr 24 03:05:20 ns1 named[212]: exiting (due to fatal error)

Line 2: "none:0" is not really telling me much, and I'm afraid I'm not
superslick with generating better debug output from the system, so I
haven't been able to gather much more information than this (apologies
for the lack thereof).

I've got named.conf and named.root in /var/namedb/etc/ where they
should be.  I've placed localtime in the root of chroot, /var/namedb/,
(this worked for me last time).  My named.conf looks like this:

[ START named.conf ]
options {
        directory "/";
        pid-file "/named.pid";
        allow-query { any; };

        forwarders {
                xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx;
        };

        dump-file "/s/named_dump.db";
};

zone "." {
        type hint;
        file "/etc/named.root";
};

zone "0.0.127.IN-ADDR.ARPA" {
        type master;
        file "/etc/localhost.rev";
        notify no;
};

zone
"0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.IP6.INT
" {
        type master;
        file "/etc/localhost.rev";
};

zone "xxx.com" {
        type master;
        file "/m/xxx.com.db";
        allow-transfer {
                xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx;
        };
};

controls {
        inet * allow { any; } keys { "rndc-key"; };
};

key "rndc-key" {
        algorithm hmac-md5;
        secret "xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx";
};


logging {

        channel default_log {
                file "/var/log/named.log" ;
                severity info;

                print-category yes;
                print-severity yes;
                print-time yes;
        };

        channel default_debug {
                file "/var/log/named.debug";
                severity dynamic;
                print-category yes;
                print-severity yes;
                print-time yes;
        };

        channel default_stderr {
                file "<stderr>";
                severity info;

                print-category yes;
                print-severity yes;
                print-time yes;
        };

        channel null {
                null;
        };
        category "default" { default_log; default_debug; };
        category "general" { default_log; default_debug; };
        category "queries" { default_log; default_debug; };
        category "lame-servers" { default_debug; };
        category "security" { default_log; };
        category "xfer-in" { default_log; default_debug; };     ers
        category "xfer-out" { default_log; default_debug; };
        category "notify" { default_log; default_debug; };
};
[ END named.conf ]

Any help is appreciated.

Jeff
