I get the following message when I reload DNS (Bind 8.8.2-P5 on Solaris
2.6)

This is the section that give me the error:

*********************************************************

        type slave;
        file "sec/sec.150.150.86";
        masters { 150.150.12.90; };
};

        severity info;          // only priority info and higher

};

channel default_debug {
        file "named.run";       //write to named.run in the

level
};
*********************************************************
Line 151 is the "syslog daemon;" in the the first channel definition.
I am unable to see what the error is.  It appears probably to be one
ofe the lines prior as when I comment out this section the error then
goes to line 158 which is the line following "channel default_debug ..."
