Curious. Why do you think you need two named processes? One named
process is perfectly capable of listening and serving data on both IPv4
and IPv6 interfaces simultaneously. So for instance this is from
named.conf on my own nameserver:
listen-on {
127.0.0.1;
81.187.76.162;
};
listen-on-v6 {
::1;
2001:8b0:151:1:e2cb:4eff:fe26:6481;
};
There's nothing particularly special about the option flags I'm using --
pretty much the default FreeBSD settings other than the changes required
to run the ports version of bind rather than the base system one:
% grep named_ /etc/rc.conf
named_enable="YES"
named_program="/usr/local/sbin/named"
named_flags="-c /etc/namedb/named.conf"
Not that it makes much difference to this question, but I'm running
FreeBSD stable/8 running bind-9.8.0 from ports similarly to you.
Cheers,
Matthew
