Hi Lowell: From the command line it runs fine.

So, are you suggesting that the process doesn't have permissions to open the file? If so, wouldn't I see a permissions error message instead of file-not-found?

TIA, AK

One last question on configuring Named to run:

I'm able to start BIND from the command line with:

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

but when I modify my rc.conf file with:

named_enable="YES"
named_program="/usr/sbin/named"
named_flags="-u bind -c /etc/named.conf"

I get an error on startup:

Feb 11 14:47:53 ns2 named[275]: none:0 open: /etc/named.conf: file not found
Feb 11 14:47:53 ns2 named[275]: loading configruation: file not found
Feb 11 14:47:53 ns2 named[275]: exiting (due to fatal error)


what's wrong with my config-file path parameter in rc.conf?


Permisssions? Try running it from the command line the same way you
do from the startup scripts.

I think your problem is related to the fact that when you run named in a sandbox, the path to /etc/named.conf becomes relative to the sandbox. So when named flags indicate /etc/named.conf, that file must actually reside at /your/chroot/path/etc/named.conf.


(keep in mind that this advice is from dim memory of having this problem over a year ago, and it could be I'm just wrong, but I'm relatively sure about sandboxing having this problem ;-)
