Su - to root, cd to /etc and run ln -s /var/named/chroot/etc/named.conf This will create the symlink for you. If you wanted, you could do the same for the files in /var/named/chroot/var/named from /var/named, but them you could get into spending more time maintaining your links than your zone files... One other cavaet. Symlinks don't work well for key files. Don't know why, but I ran into problems with rndc.key when I tried placing a single copy in /var/named/chroot/etc and symlinking from /etc. Eric Diamond eDiamond Networking & Security 303-246-9555 eric@xxxxxxxxxxxx
