bind problem urgent

[vdsmania]

when i modify a dns zone ti gives errors like that
Error reloading bind on dedicated: rndc: no server specified and no default

and also dns not work like subdomains :nuts: :help:

[arty]

have you tried /scripts/fixnamed

[mikron15]

possible overriding problem from bind being unable to make the pid file in /var/run after updating to bind9.
Change permissions on /var/run to 744? so bind can create the pid file.

If it doesnt work, holla back on msn

[vdsmania]

same :confused:

edited now bind is failed and i couldn't restart it
Restarting bind.....Waiting for named to restart..............finished.


named has failed, please contact the sysadmin (result was "named is not running"

[vdsmania]

[arty]

if you set them to 740 you shouldn't have any problem
try ls -al /var/run/named

[vdsmania]
