BIND doesn't create a chroot directory. BIND doesn't have a default chroot directory. I think you are seeing that from something else. > However, I'm wondering if there is a way to define, at compile time, > where the chroot will be created, so that we don't have to do the > intermediate movement step?

The chroot directory is defined on the named command line with -t switch. We currently don't have option to define this at compile time. Start looking at the ns_g_chrootdir in the code. Jeremy C.
