Yesterday noon my time I rebooted my server. Things seemed to be slow. Several streams were hanging or stopping, and because ethic.thought.org had been up for 61 days I figured it wouldn't hurt to reinitialize stuff. Well, nutshell, disaster. For hours it wasn't clear whether the server would survive, but eventually i got a portupgrade -avOPk going and now I am close to having every port rebuilt. Now host kuow.org gives the the IP address of the U/Washington. Etc. last night for unknown reasons even this failed. I remembered that late last fall I was warned the "bind9" was nearing its end/life. I okayed the portupgrade to remove bind9 and install whatever its follow up would be. Since then, my kill9named script[s] and my restartnamed script[s] have failed. Can anyone save me from hours of tracking down whatever I have to to put things right? Everything I get in trouble with this bind stuff it occurs how significant an achievement it is to have a service that automagically maps quad/dotted-decimals to actual words. Sorry if this sounds disjoint; it is past time for a lollipop and a blanket and a *nap* gary -- Gary Kline kline@thought.org http://www.thought.org Public Service Unix The 7.97a release of Jottings: http://jottings.thought.org/index.php http://journey.thought.org ethic
