Potential issue in Bind 9.7.3-P3

2011-10-27 Thread Hayward, Bruce
Has anyone had an issue in the past month with bind 9.7.3-P3, where bind stops responding. In this case we are running on a Netra 240, under Solaris 10. I do not have a lot to offer yet, as there is nothing in any of the logs. I am currently running a snoop for the next time. Tha

Bind Debug file question

2009-03-19 Thread Hayward, Bruce
Hi Currently running 9.5.1-P1 on Solaris 10. I can successfully change the debug level using "rndc trace xx" where xx is the debug level. The change shows when running "rndc status" (We are chasing why bind seems not to answer when busy at times) What I cannot find is the output that should b
