Problems with BIND from RHN

[Ronni Jensen]

Hi,
 

I have some RedHat Enterprise ES v4 running and have installed the
following BIND package from RHN: bind-9.2.4-2.x86_64.rpm

 

The package contains these files:

 

/etc/logrotate.d/named

/etc/rc.d/init.d/named

/etc/rndc.conf

/etc/rndc.key

/etc/sysconfig/named

/usr/sbin/dns-keygen

/usr/sbin/dnssec-keygen

/usr/sbin/dnssec-makekeyset

/usr/sbin/dnssec-signkey

/usr/sbin/dnssec-signzone

/usr/sbin/lwresd

/usr/sbin/named

/usr/sbin/named-bootconf

/usr/sbin/named-checkconf

/usr/sbin/named-checkzone

/usr/sbin/rndc

/usr/sbin/rndc-confgen

/usr/share/doc/bind-9.2.4

/usr/share/doc/bind-9.2.4/arm

/usr/share/doc/bind-9.2.4/arm/Bv9ARM-book.xml

 

..and all I have in /etc/named.conf is:

 

// Default named.conf generated by install of bind-9.2.4-2

options {

        directory "/var/named";

        dump-file "/var/named/data/cache_dump.db";

        statistics-file "/var/named/data/named_stats.txt";

};

include "/etc/rndc.key";

 

 

In /var/named there is just an empty data/ and slaves/ dir...

 

Howcome there isn't generated a default named.conf containing the
basics, and options file and db.root etc? When I APT-installed BIND on
e.g. a Debian, they were there... 

 

Best regards,
