dns stats (fwd)

[Joaquin J. Domens]

Hi all,

I'm having same problem on this new Solaris boxes, running 8.3.1

But I can't seem to find the channel for ndc, and in named.conf there's no
control entry about that.

One difference I've seen between this new box, and other one already running ndc
(both with 8.3.1) it's:

ndc ok:

srw-------   1 root     root           0 Jan 30  2001 ndc
drwx------   2 root     root         512 Apr  3 14:18 ndc.d
-rw-r--r--   1 root     other      51924 Apr  8 17:58 named.conf
-rw-r--r--   1 root     other          6 Apr  9 11:57 named.pid

ndc not running:

drwx------   2 root     root         512 Apr  4 17:02 ndc.d
-rw-r--r--   1 root     other      16861 Apr  9 13:06 named.conf
-rw-r--r--   1 root     other          5 Apr  9 15:30 named.pid

And the error I got it's the same ......

ndc: error: ctl_client: evConnect(fd 3): No such file or directory
ndc: error: cannot connect to command channel (/var/run/ndc)

Hope it helps

Cheers
