Just wondering what the correct rc.conf options should be used for the
new bind9. I have it working but using the default
named_pidfile="/var/run/named/pid" I get to many levels of symlinks
error, so I just made it /var/run/named and it works.
What I have right now is
named_enable="YES"
named_flags="-c /etc/namedb/named.conf"
I mean I have it running no problem. I just want to have it running
securly the correct way, and since its new there really are no guides.
---
named_enable="NO" # Run named, the DNS server (or NO).
named_program="/usr/sbin/named" # path to named, if you want a different
one.
named_flags="-u bind" # Flags for named
named_pidfile="/var/run/named/pid" # Must set this in named.conf as well
named_chrootdir="" # Chroot directory (or "" not to auto-
chroot it)
named_chroot_autoupdate="YES" # Automatically install/update chrooted
# components of named.
See /etc/rc.d/named.
named_symlink_enable="YES" # Symlink the chrooted pid file
