No error messages, but is the normal named startup message shown in /var/log/messages? > named_enable="YES" This is enough by itself. > named_program="/usr/local/sbin/named" > named_conf="/usr/local/etc/namedb/named.conf" Don't set these, they are defaults. It works for me, so at least it is possible. The first thing that comes to mind is that the machine may be starting named before the network interface is up. See man rc.conf | less -p netwait for a method of making the startup wait for an IP address to actually become available before continuing.
