When I shutdown under v9.2, I get a "failed" message when it comes to "named". It actually gives 3 "failed" messages at different times. The shutdown continues okay, but I've not had these messages under any other version. Thanks! --

I have written up the necessary config files for your dns, Julian. They may need some tweaking, but they should match the setup you describe below. The named.conf goes in /etc. The other two files go in /var/named, and are the actual files which named (dns) uses to keep track on computers and IP
