Emery,
Actually, I am running an older version of Red Hat Enterprise - not 
Solaris 9.   However, I have had problems with receiving the "Too man 
open files" error.  When this happens, the named daemon continues to run 
- but does not resolve names.  Also, I have recompiled named increasing 
the FD_SETSIZE to 4096.  Weird thing is after doing that, named ran for 
about a day before I received the "Too man open files" error and named 
stopped resolving.
