Since you're running FreeBSD 8.4, you will still have the startup scripts from the base system -- /etc/rc.d/named These are quite capable of starting up the ports version of named. Just set named_command="/usr/local/sbin/named" in /etc/rc.conf Actually, given you *aren't* using the ports, where did /usr/local/etc/rc.d/named come from? That's supplied exclusively by the port. > However, if I try to check rndc… > > # /usr/local/sbin/rndc status > rndc: neither /etc/rndc.conf nor /etc/rndc.key was found > > Now, it is true that there is no rndc.conf, but that is true all all three > name servers.

There should be a symbolic link /etc/namedb -> /var/named/etc/namedb if you're using the standard chroot setup in FreeBSD 8.4. The default location for rndc.conf is /etc/namedb/rndc.conf but again, there would usually be a symlink /etc/rndc.conf -> /etc/namedb/rndc.conf (which means the actual location after chasing all the symlinks is /var/named/etc/namedb/rndc.conf) Similarly for rndc.key if you are using that instead. I usually added another symlink /usr/local/etc/rndc.conf -> /etc/namedb/rndc.conf when using the ports version of named with the system versions of the named configuration scripts.

Re: compile and install from source
Prefered procedure: 1) Install the ports collection via "portsnap fetch" and then "portsnap extract" (or "portsnap update" if already installed) 2) Go to /usr/ports/dns/bind99 and type "make install" Please note that after installing, you will have two versions of BIND on your system: - the default version of BIND that is installed with the system and resides in /usr/sbin/, config is in /etc/namedb. Don't try to overwrite this, it's not the right way to do it - the version installed from ports or packages that resides in /usr/local/sbin/, config is in /usr/local/etc/. That's the version you want to use. In 8.4., the default chroot for BIND is /var/named, you might want to use that. Please not that in FreeBSD 10, BIND is removed from system and replaced with Unbound as the default resolver, and the chroot in /var/named is gone, you have to make it manually. If you run Bind in chroot, you should have this in rc.conf: named_enable="YES" named_flags="-t /var/named" syslogd_flags="-s -l /var/named/dev/log" Use the rc script /usr/local/etc/rc.d/named to start and stop the BIND process. -- S pozdravem, Daniel Ryšlink System Administrator Dial Telecom a. s.

It's been a while since I ran FreeBSD 8.4 on any nameservers, but I recall it working fine using the ports version of named and the configuration files from the base system. Can you start the named process "by hand" -- the command line should be something like: # /usr/local/sbin/named -u bind -c /etc/namedb/named.conf \ -t /var/named (assuming you want it to run chrooted) If you've setup named to log to syslog, rather than just writing its own files, then adding syslogd_flags="-l /var/named/var/run/log" to /etc/rc.conf and restarting syslogd may get you some better logging information.
