I am making a "double transition" here -- from Bind 8 running on Tru64 Unix to
Bind 9 running on OSX via MacPorts.
I started bind9 (which one assumes means named) according to the install script
directions:
>sudo port load bind9
Now i'm trying to make sense of what I'm seeing... or doing wrong.
> ps auxw | grep named
root 4419 0.0 0.6 623964 11588 ?? S 5:10PM 0:00.36
/opt/local/sbin/named -f
root 4417 0.0 0.0 611772 720 ?? Ss 5:10PM 0:00.39
/opt/local/bin/daemondo --label=bind9 --start-cmd /opt/local/sbin/named -f ;
--restart-netchange --pid=exec
magill 60699 0.0 0.0 590736 308 s000 R+ 3:21PM 0:00.00 grep
named
The implication here is that named is running in the foreground (-f), not as a
daemon.
But:
> launchctl list

I note that laucnchclt also does not show my MacPorts -- Apache/MySql/PhP
installation, which is running as expected.
Question 1: It's not that (i don't think) named is not running, but I don't
understand what I'm seeing.
a) why the -f
b) why nothing in launchctl
Historically, to update the zonefiles, etc. I would simply "HUP" named.
However, it appears that
the "correct way" to do this under the MacPorts installation is the inverse of
the start...
> sudo port unload bind9
> sudo port load bind9
Question 2: is that correct?
Other than those two questions, as far as I know everything is happy.
The named.conf file and zonefiles all pass the respective
named-check<...> tools.
I think named is responding correctly (I"m also transferring the domain
delegation at the same time to DynDNS.com)
I get seemingly appropriate dig responses.
