Hi, I as know default version (without port upgrading) is Bind 9.3.3 in Freebsd 6.2. You can see the version, executing named -v command. Do a ps -ax | grep named and see whether named is running or not. Also you can find the Bind logs in /var/named/var/log directory (chrooted directory), if it is running check your configuration with dig or nslookup if not - use /usr/sbin/named-checkconf and /usr/sbin/named-checkzone to inspect the problem. Please post your error text to help you furthermore.

Here I wants to run my DNS server , by default I found the in /etc/namedb dir , named.conf file & master dir etc in the m/c after OS installation , so I configured my DNS entries (I mean named.conf and zone file for my domain I configured ) , and after that I tried to start /etc/rc.d/named start but no message that it is starting or not . I would like to ask you whether I have to install , bind 8 or bind 9 through /usr/ports/dns to make this machine as a DNS server or by default (I mean fresh installation) the bind is coming? (because I can see /etc/namedb dir and named.conf file ,master dir , etc ... there) pls guide me to setup Bind in FreeBSD6.2 to make A DNS server for my own domain thanks in Advance kk _________________________________________________________________ Search from any Web page with powerful protection.
