Hi all,

I'm running Red Hat 5.2 on my machine which is an
IP masquerading (NAT) gateway for my home
network.  I am using bind 8.2.2p5 as a caching-
only nameserver.  My problem is that somewhere
along the line, named got killed and didn't clean
up after itself.  Here's the relevant part of the
log:

May 24 21:37:56 chicago named[1048]: ctl_server:
bind: Address already in use
May 24 21:39:48 chicago named[1048]: There may be
a name server already running on [127.0.0.1].53
May 24 21:39:48 chicago named[1048]: deleting
interface [127.0.0.1].53
May 24 21:41:48 chicago named[1048]: There may be
a name server already running on
[192.168.1.254].53
May 24 21:41:48 chicago named[1048]: deleting
interface [192.168.1.254].53
May 24 21:41:48 chicago named[1048]: not
listening on any interfaces
May 24 21:41:48 chicago named[1048]: Forwarding
source address is [0.0.0.0].53
May 24 21:41:48 chicago named[1055]: Ready to
answer queries.

Naturally, I checked and there is only one
instance of named running.

Could somebody please tell me how to recover from
this condition?  I tried waiting for it to clear
itself, which had worked in the past, but no luck
this time.

Any assistance would be gratefully appreciated!
