Bind works perfectly out of the box on most FBSD recent versions.
You should not move things out of the path they have been setup to.
Specially on FBSD /etc is reserved for system files.
By default bind is installed in /var/named and should be kept there.
If I was you I would :
1. install the latest bind version from the port //
2. make sure you don't touch things unless absolutely necessary.
3. copy paste of modify the /var/named/etc/namedb/named.conf so that
It corresponds to your needs.
4. make sure the /etc/rc.conf has the correct "named" values.
5. start it with the /usr/local/etc/rc.d/ script for named //
Been runing this one with 1000 zones as both masters and slave never
had any problem.
If you have more issue could give you a help on debuging bind.
My advice : STICK TO THE FBSD RULES AND PATH unless you perfectly know
what you are doing.

Hello;
I am having some named problems:
The daemon will not start and run on system startup.
There is plenty of info on problems when named
is running, but not when it will not start.
I did get it to start after boot with
#named (su to root without - option)
It started and ran as demonstrated
with ps -aux. But the listing was
just user (me as mortal user) and
named as process (not as a path
to an executable, as is normal
for other processes).
The console messages at start up
gives me configuration file not found
errors. The files are there.
/etc/namedb/named.conf, rndc.key
/etc/namedb is a link to /var/named/etc/namedb where the config
files are. It is set up to be a slave server
for four domains.
How can I go about debugging this
situation?
My suspicions are ownership and permissions
are wrong, but how, and how to fix; ??
Thanks in advance
Jeff k
