The following are the options entries in the /etc/named.conf file. The
syslog shown below indicates a syntax error. I can't figure out what is
wrong. Any idea?

Thanks,
Ali

options {
        directory "/var/named";
        pid-file "/usr/local/etc/named.pid";
        multiple-cnames yes;
        query-source address * port 53;
        logging {
                channel chatty { syslog daemon; serverity debug; };
                category config { chatty; };
                category load { chatty; };
                category parser { chatty; };
        };
};
