Here's an interesting one:
I set up a name server (7.1) a little over a
week ago and everything was working great and I haven't touched it only to set
up a samba share and make a couple of DNS additions. I came in today with 852
messages in my inbox (thanks to MRTG) and absolutley no DNS on the
machine.
I checked to see if named was running (ps -ef
|grep named), and nothing. I started named (/etc/rc.d/init.d/named start) and
it said ok. I checked to see if it was running and it was not.
I checked the service activity in linuxconf - it
says that bind was running - it's set up for runlevels 3,4,5. I was unable to
stop it via linuxconf either. I looked at /etc/named.conf and that looks fine
as well. I checked out the zone files for our primary domains as well and
those look fine.
At this point I am stuck and any help would be
appreciated.
Thanks
