Problem: named launches and functions perfectly fine if launched without the "-u" option, but it won't listen on any ip addresses if any of them are bound to TAP interfaces when the "-u" is used. This problem surfaced when upgrading to BIND version 9.10.2-P3, but the problem does not occur with BIND version 9.9.3-P2.
Background: We place service addresses on their own RedHat tun/tap interfaces as opposed to placing all of the service addresses on the Eth interface as secondary addresses. We do this for a number of reasons. Many years ago, I used multiple loopback interfaces for this purpose, but a while ago when loopbacks would no longer would on RedHat, we discovered that RedHat tun/tap interfaces (in the TAP mode) served the same purpose, and we found a similar construct on Solaris. But now there seems to be a problem. Platform: RedHat Enterprise Linux release 6.6, kernel version 2.6.32-504.16.2.el6.x86_64 Conifg: I have the config file set to listen on two ip addresses, one of which is bound to eth0, and the other bound to a TAP interface. . Here is an excerpt of the debug output when launching "named -u incadmin -g -d99" which fails to listen on any ip addresses: 25-Sep-2015 19:58:49.963 socket 0x7f5921547010: created 25-Sep-2015 19:58:49.963 sockmgr 0x7f592152e010: watcher got message -3 for socket 20 25-Sep-2015 19:58:49.963 sockmgr 0x7f592152e010: watcher got message -2 for socket -1 25-Sep-2015 19:58:49.963 socket 0x7f5921547010: socket_recv: event 0x7f5921548010 -> task 0x7f5921540010 25-Sep-2015 19:58:49.964 loading configuration from '/export/local/ISC/bind-9.10.2-P3/etc/named.conf' 25-Sep-2015 19:58:49.969 reading built-in trusted keys from file '/export/local/ISC/bind-9.10.2-P3/etc/bind.keys' 25-Sep-2015 19:58:49.969 set maximum stack size to 18446744073709551615: success 25-Sep-2015 19:58:49.969 set maximum data size to 18446744073709551615: success 25-Sep-2015 19:58:49.969 set maximum core size to 0: success 25-Sep-2015 19:58:49.969 set maximum open files to 18446744073709551615: success 25-Sep-2015 19:58:49.970 using default UDP/IPv4 port range: [1024, 65535] 25-Sep-2015 19:58:49.970 using default UDP/IPv6 port range: [1024, 65535] 25-Sep-2015 19:58:49.971 listening on IPv4 interface eth0, 10.130.33.71#53 25-Sep-2015 19:58:49.971 clientmgr @0x7f5921447010: create 25-Sep-2015 19:58:49.972 sendmsg: Invalid argument 25-Sep-2015 19:58:49.972 socket 0x7f5921547268: created 25-Sep-2015 19:58:49.973 socket 0x7f5921547268: destroying 25-Sep-2015 19:58:49.973 sockmgr 0x7f592152e010: watcher got message -5 for socket 512 25-Sep-2015 19:58:49.973 sockmgr 0x7f592152e010: watcher got message -2 for socket -1 25-Sep-2015 19:58:49.973 could not listen on UDP socket: permission denied 25-Sep-2015 19:58:49.973 clientmgr @0x7f5921447010: destroy 25-Sep-2015 19:58:49.973 clientmgr @0x7f5921447010: clientmgr_destroy 25-Sep-2015 19:58:49.973 creating IPv4 interface eth0 failed;
