Eddie,
Sounds like you are not running named as root (which is a good thing) and/or
your permissions are not set right or named.conf is wrong.
First check thru your named.conf to make sure it is pointing to the db files
in the right spot. You might also have someone else look at it in case of
brain burn-thru resulting from staring at the screen for extended periods. DNS
files in particular are that way.
Check for who is running named, and make certain that this user (user 'bind'
is probably already set up) has read and write privileges in the named db
directory + all files therein
Also 'bind' needs write permission on the named pid. If you are not running as
root, you'll probably need to add
options {
pid-file "/var/named/named.pid"
};
into the named.conf (bind V8) file. Create the /var/named directory and chown
it to the named owner (bind or whoever)
It is a very good idea not to run named as root, esp. with the recently
publicized compromise in some versions of bind. If someone compromises named,
then they only get to be 'bind', not root.
