Link to what? The install instructions say:
* To setup named to run, you need to copy named.conf.dist
* to named.conf:
* sudo cp /opt/local/etc/named.conf.dist /opt/local/etc/named.conf
You then edit /opt/local/etc/named.conf and set things like log file locations,
and, in particular
listen-on { 127.0.0.1; YOUR.IP.ADDRESS.HERE; };
if you want other hosts to be able to query.
My assumption is that you wanted to point the bind9 to a pre-existing
named.conf file.
This note is just to clarify for others the simple change to the config file
that allows external connections to your nameserver.
