Hi,
I have read some postings here in the group that states to set the
group writability for the named directory.
But it still keeps logging the error message from the topic.
Log:
Jan 9 11:55:53 vmhost named[11970]: starting BIND 9.5.0-P2 -t /var/
lib/named -u named

My working directory is /var/lib/named and the permissions ara as
follows:

I have added g+w permissions to the zone files and behrens.de, but
this also doesn't help.
My named.conf looks like this:
options {
# The directory statement defines the name server's working
directory
directory "/var/lib/named";
# Write dump and statistics file to the log subdirectory. The
# pathenames are relative to the chroot jail.
dump-file "/var/log/named_dump.db";
statistics-file "/var/log/named.stats";
...
What am I doing wrong ?
Are the dump-file and statistics-file entries the reason ?
Thanks
Lothar
