>Description:
When restarting i always get this error in my log that the working directory of named wasn't writable, .. so i chown the /var/named directory to bind, .. but i noticed that after restarting the daemon that the permissions where set back to what they where.
instead of making such fixes:
directory "/etc/namedb/letskeepthisdirwriteable";
it might be more reasonable to change, BIND.chroot.dist to use bind instead of root user.
>How-To-Repeat:
restart the bind daemon
>Fix:
# $FreeBSD: src/etc/mtree/BIND.chroot.dist,v 1.6.20.1 2009/04/15 03:14:26 kensmith Exp $

/set type=dir uname=root gname=wheel mode=0755 << change uname=bind
