Hi All:

I just upgraded from freebsd 5.1 to 5.3, and I want to edit the startup parameters for named so that it reads my previous config file, basically I want the startup parameter to be:

/usr/sbin/named -4 -c /etc/named.conf

But I can't find where that command string is?

all that is in my /etc/rc.conf is "named_enable="YES" "

I have another file called /etc/rc.conf~ which has the line:

"named_program="/urs/sbin/named" "

But is that file a backup file or is it actually used?

Or do I just need to modify that line with the parameters I want it to start up with?

Thanks!

(14:36:08) [EMAIL PROTECTED] ~]% grep named /etc/defaults/rc.conf
<..snip..>
named_enable="NO" # Run named, the DNS server (or NO).
named_program="/usr/sbin/named" # path to named, if you want a different one.
named_flags="-u bind" # Flags for named
<..snip..>


Add the approapriote lines to /etc/rc.conf and you're all set. DO NOT, I repeat, DO NOT EDIT /etc/defaults/rc.conf. put overrides for it in /etc/rc.conf.
