Things are a little missleading and the default FC1 install reads the configuration files from /var/named/chroot/etc and not /etc... The same rule applies to the files they are read from [any domain DNS files] /var/named/chroot/var/named and not /var/named.... Be careful, you will see files that contain configuration in the old directories as well! | > | > | > | > PS: iptables is DOWN! | > | > | > | > Thank U. | > | > Horatius Farcas | | Hm, I can not acknowledge your indication in any way.
