Thanks for the advice!I had been restarting named through the webmin interface I have, but maybe your method is better as I see that it assigns a new pid and other things as I tail my messages log.
Also, I had replaced the named.root file as per some instructions I found on google with a version downloaded from a dns type website. That didn't do anything. So I tried your dig method and it seems to have worked so far.
I'll have to learn more about all this but I'm busy learning the basics still - lots to learn.
Anyway, much appreciated for your time and help! -- Jim D.
