Is there a way to get dynamic DNS entries out of the jnl files and into the zone data file? My understanding is that the two usual ways are to run "rndc stop", or to wait a certain period of time. I'm running BIND 9.3.5-P1 on Solaris 10. What I am trying to do is to stop DNS, make a backup of all of the db files and then restart DNS. I don't want to make backups of the jnl files. To complicate matters, I am doing this on Solaris 10, which uses SMF for starting and stopping DNS. The command svcadm disable svc:/network/dns/server:default does stop DNS, but it doesn't appear to write the dynamic data to the zone data file. So: Is there a better BIND related way of getting that dynamic data into the zone data file? Is there a better SUN related way of getting that dynamic data into the zone data file? Originally, I had changed the SUN SMF stop method from ":kill" to "rndc stop", and that worked fine, except in some cases, it was noticed that named was not restarting on reboot. Changing the stop method back to ":kill" seems to care of that problem, but opens up that dynamic update commit problem. Thoughts? Suggestions? Thanks in advance! jwc
