RE: [TCLUG:1781] DNS server timing out

[Ben Kochie <ben@nerp.net>]

no parameters are needed, but unless you know now to configure named.boot,
and other named config files.. it may still not work properly.

in your /etc/rc.d/rc3.d direcotry check ot see what named is set to
ls -l | grep named

you may show up with a file like this
lrwxrwxrwx   1 root     root           15 Aug 19 01:05 K10named ->
../init.d/named

you want this to be a S90 file

mv K10named S90named

the way redhat does startup is look at the runlevel.. (3)
and then any file named K..... will get run with the option stop
and any S file will get the option start
and it will do it in numerical order, it make bootup much more complicated
as far as script systems.. (BSD has one startup script, that just runs all
the things that need to be run)
but allows for simple GUI interfaces to be made

Thank You,
        Ben Kochie (ben@nerp.net)
