Hi David

Thanks for the help.

I deleted that line, and looked at named.root, which was empty.

What I do have though is:

.               99999999        IN      NS      aztec.co.za. 

aztec.co.za. 99999999                   A       196.7.70.131 
                                                            
in a file db.cache which is referred to in named.boot as follows:
directory       /usr/lib/named                             

;type           domain                  source file or host
primary         pcm.co.za               db.pcm.co.za       
;secondary      co.za                   192.96.22.53       
cache           .                       db.cache           
primary         226.3.196.in-addr.arpa  db.196.3.226       
primary         0.0.127.in-addr.arpa    db.127.0.0         
forwarders      196.7.70.131                               

However, I think I just found something.

In db.soa, a file included in db.pcm.co.za, db.196.3.226, and db.127.0.0 
I had this:
@               IN SOA  pcmunix1.pcm.co.za.      postmaster.pcm.co.za.
( 
                        95040601; Serial                              
                         10800   ; Refresh                            
                          1800    ; Retry                             
                           3600000 ; Expire                           
                            86400 ) ; Minimum                         
                             
                IN NS   pcmunix1.pcm.co.za.                            

Where pcmunix1 no longer exists. You see, I just copied the name 
server files from the old SCO (pcmunix1) box to the new FreeBSD 
(pcmgate) box. I have changed the references in here to pcmgate, now 
perhaps I wil be OK?

Thanks again,
