>Number: 41035 >Category: misc >Synopsis: http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/configtuning-configfiles.html's /var/db refs bogus? >Confidential: no >Severity: non-critical >Priority: low >Responsible: freebsd-bugs >State: open >Quarter: >Keywords: >Date-Required: >Class: sw-bug >Submitter-Id: current-users >Arrival-Date: Fri Jul 26 21:00:10 PDT 2002 >Closed-Date: >Last-Modified: >Originator: Chris Pepper >Release: 4.6-STABLE >Organization: >Environment: FreeBSD guest.reppep.com 4.6-STABLE FreeBSD 4.6-STABLE #3: Fri Jul 26 19:51:33 EDT 2002 root@guest.reppep.com:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/GENERIC i386 >Description: <http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/configtuning-configfiles.html>; says that named stores data in /var/db by default, and also says this is specified in /etc/namedb/named.conf. Neither of these appears to be true in 4.6-STABLE. >How-To-Repeat: Visit <http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/configtuning-configfiles.html>. >Fix: Remove refs to /var/db from this web page, or change /etc/namedb/named.conf with: directory "/var/db" Why does BIND store data in /etc instead of /var? This seems strange to me, and I didn't find an explanation in a brief search of the site. >Release-Note: >Audit-Trail: >Unformatted: To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-bugs" in the body of the message
