The PID file location for currently hardcoded to /var/run in the named binary. Is there a good reason for not changing that to /var/run/named/pid as the default on FreeBSD, instead of adjusting the location in both /etc/defaults/rc.conf and named.conf? This is error-prone, and easy to forget -- if you do, it means named won't start up as it cannot write the PID file to the default location. Second, shouldn't /etc/rc.d/named be rewritten to take rndc into account, and not use /etc/rc.subr? -- Juha
