Mat, I encountered an odd situation where my stats file kept changing permissions. With every reinstall of bind911, the permissions on var/run/named/stats change to chown root:bind which prevents bind from updating the file.
This is what I need: $ ls -l /var/run/named/stats -rw-r--r-- 1 bind bind 11507 Jan 20 00:45 /var/run/named/stats Could that change be carried out by this file? https://svnweb.freebsd.org/ports/head/dns/bind911/files/BIND.chroot.dist?view=markup#l24 I don't see a reference to /var/run/named/stats in BIND.chroot.dist but can't help but wonder if it's something similar. I have been using these options: directory "/usr/local/etc/namedb/working"; pid-file "/var/run/named/pid"; dump-file "/var/dump/named_dump.db"; statistics-file "/var/run/named/stats"; zone-statistics yes; When researching this tonight, I noticed the sample configuration uses /var/run/named.stats. Perhaps I'm doing this wrong. I am happy to change my configuration, but first I write in case the script is doing something unexpected. Ideas welcome.
