: Hi Gerald, all help is good help :) thank you!
: 
: I found that they never updated the message in the RaQ GUI,
: but you are correct, they mean to refer to named.conf, not
: named.boot.
: 
: Who said that creating separate error pages was a good idea
: anyway??? :) Do we not all speak the English now? Sorry
: Cobalt, i love to pick. :)
: 
: When i check the perms again, i noticed that my file in the
: init.d directory called named has file size zero?
: 
: I am sure this should not be.
: 
: Does anyone have an original named file from the init.d
: directory on a RaqQ4i?
: 
: I bet that it is not size zero?
: 
: I have been tempted to add "named" to the boot file cause
: that seems to be all i have to do to start it, but i would
: rather fix the problem.
: 
: Who needs a broken Cobalt GUI. :)

: : As indicated below, when i try to stop the server from the
: : control panel the message changes to "Cannot rename
: : /etc/named.boot to $Named_disabled" (again it seems from
: the

: : I get a funny feeling that the RaQ is somehow confused
: about
: : the state of the DNS server. It shows it checked off, and
: : starts the swatch, even though it's not able to start it.
: : It's almost like the SQL database is backward with repeat
: to
: : the state of the DNS server? But that is just a guess??? I
: : am very unsure what to do next.
: : What version of bind are you running?
: : The /etc/named.boot file is a "bind version 4"
: configuration
: : file.
: : You must be running a RaQ2.
: : I read somewhere that the RaQ2 GUI uses the
: /etc/named.boot
: : file,
: : Then runs a conversion script (named-bootconf.pl) to
: convert
: : named.boot to bind bind 8 /etc/named.conf.
: : I have a RaQ2, but I don't use the GUI for DNS. So my
: system
: : does not use named.boot.
: : Probably no-help, but some information.
