Actually, I did a bit more investigation into the problem and it doesn't appear to be with named.conf. Here are the syslog entries that are present when named starts: Feb 4 21:21:56 igueths named[1905]: starting BIND 9.2.3rc4 -c /etc/named.conf Feb 4 21:21:56 igueths named[1905]: using 1 CPU Feb 4 21:21:57 igueths named[1905]: loading configuration from '/etc/named.conf' Feb 4 21:21:57 igueths named[1905]: no IPv6 interfaces found Feb 4 21:21:57 igueths named[1905]: listening on IPv4 interface lo, 127.0.0.1#53 Feb 4 21:21:57 igueths named[1905]: listening on IPv4 interface eth0, 68.37.56.149#53 Feb 4 21:21:57 igueths named[1905]: listening on IPv4 interface eth1, 192.168.1.1#53 Feb 4 21:21:57 igueths named[1905]: none:0: open: /usr/etc/rndc.key: file not found Feb 4 21:21:57 igueths named[1905]: couldn't add command channel 127.0.0.1#953: file not found Feb 4 21:21:57 igueths named[1905]: dns_rdata_fromtext: /var/named/68.37:2: near '200402041638': out of range Feb 4 21:21:57 igueths named[1905]: zone lava-net.com/IN: loading master file /var/named/68.37: out of range Feb 4 21:21:57 igueths named[1905]: running What does that out of range message mean? I checked over the zone file and it seems to be ok. Does this have to do with the fact that my nameserver doesn't respond to any dig queries?
