I am trying to install bind 9.7.1-P2 from source on a SLES 10 SP3 server.
When I run named from the command line, it runs, but fails to open and write

I had similar problems with 9.7.1-P2 and it seemed that the named init
script generated for F11 reset permissions on the /var/named directory.
Go figure. But, to make it work, I inserted a chmod command just before
it launched the daemon to set /var/named as owned by named. I also like
the executable in /usr/local/sbin rather than /usr/sbin as the script
said. so mine now is as below:
...
chown -hR named:named /var/named ## DRF
# daemon /usr/sbin/"$named" -u named ${OPTIONS}; ## DRF
daemon /usr/local/sbin/"$named" -u named ${OPTIONS}; ## DRF
...
I don't start it directly from the command line though, so running from
the command line as root should not have that ownership problem. You
might check the actual install directory as you might be running the old
executable.
