Change the "default-server localhost" to "default-server 127.0.0.1" to make sure rdnc does not try to contact the name server using IPv6. + + +Q: I have Freebsd 4.4 and "rndc-confgen -a" just sits there. + +A: /dev/random is not configured. Use rndcontrol(8) to tell the kernel +to use certian interupts as a source of random events. You can make this +permanent by setting rand_irqs in /etc/rc.conf. + +e.g. + /etc/rc.conf + rand_irqs="3 14 15" + + +Q: Why is named listening on UDP port other than 53? + +A: Named uses a system selected port to make queries of other nameservers. +This behaviour can be overridden by using query-source to lock down the +port and/or address. + + +Q: I get error messages like "multiple RRs of singleton type" and +"CNAME and other data" when transfering a zone. What does this mean? + +A: These indicate a malformed master zone. You can identify the +exact records involved by transfering the zone using dig then +running named-checkzone on it. + + e.g. + dig axfr example.com @master-server > tmp + named-checkzone example.com tmp |
