Isn't named's default behaviour to run chrooted? It appears so whn looking at the rc script. Also, when something goes wrong, named won't reload but logs a complaint
into /var/log/messages. So it is a good idea to check logs every time a change is made. > > zone "daemonbox.net" { > type master; > file "master/daemonbox.net"; > }; > > /* > zone "140.246.66.in-addr.arpa" { > type master; > file "master/140.246.66.in-addr.arpa"; > }; > */ > [EMAIL PROTECTED] ~]# cat /etc/namedb/master/daemonbox.net > $TTL 3600 ; 1 hour > daemonbox.net.

I've been ignoring that to save time while troubleshooting as (from my understanding) it is only used by other name servers so they know to update their information: "The serial number identifies this version of the zone configuration. Remote name servers first retreive the SOA record and check if the serial number has incremented before deciding whether to access the rest of the zone, which could be large. Make sure you increment this field every time you edit the file. If you don't, your updates will not propagate to other name servers." -The Complete FreeBSD, Greg Lehey

Good point.

Yea, I feel I may just use the A records as the additional query issue you mentioned previously leaves me thinking it's the better configuration...it still bothers me I can't figure it out though. :-/

I've been checking /var/log/messages but see nothing after recieving that error. Are all named logs placed here by default?

Thanks for all your help! Can you resolve other domains (e.g.: freebsd.org)? Can't think of anything else right now.
Yes, as I noted, when I remove the CNAME entry everything works fine.
