I know that if bind is installed via apt-get install (I am using debian

Since named "just works" and I do everything else using rndc, I have the
following line in /etc/rc.local:

I also find that named "just works" and, since the source install uses the
/usr/local/sbin as the default target, it does not overwrite my
distribution (Fedora) binary. It is also important to my setup that named
is always running so I use a root crontab entry:
/usr/bin/pgrep named >/dev/null || /usr/local/sbin/named -u named
that runs every minute to insure it is up. I can then stop it with
rndc stop and it will restart on the next minute's crontab event.
I can return to my distribution's upstart by stopping using the rndc and
immediately start it's binary using the service command, but have found
the ISC source tarballs a better solution to my needs that include DNSSEC
and IPv6 while Fedora 11 is EOL. YMMV.
