A new installation of bind9.7.1P2 is otherwise running properly and the only reason why I am asking this question is that I am not sure how to determine which file or directory has the wrong ownership or permissions. I got the same error when running the command:
rndc -c /usr/local/etc/rndc.conf stats but was able to correct that by touching named.stats in /named/var/named/stats and then making it owned by bind. Can one do a global check on the whole tree to point out which files or directories have the wrong ownership? This installation is a production name server so I can basically do anything as long as it doesn't shut the system down. rndc -c /usr/local/etc/rndc.conf status reports everything clean and green. I do a reload every night at Midnight to restart the logs which die after newsyslog rolls them over. Thanks for all constructive ideas.
