Greetings All,
I have installed the Bind DNS package in Fedora Core 6. The Bind
version is 9.3.4.
The /etc/named.conf which is provided by caching-nameserver is missing.
But another file is there , named.rfc1912.zones which is having the
same
format as /etc/named.conf .
If I rename named.rfc1912.zones to named.conf and restart the named
service , it fails with the following errors.
""

f I configure named.rfc1912.zones , named works fine and name
resolution occurs for the configured domain.
So, I want to know whether with the current versions of bind ,
named.conf has been renamed to named.rfc1912.zones .
Also , Is it O.K to use named.rfc1912.zones as the bind configuration
file . If that is not the case , please let me know how to use
named.conf with the later versions of Bind.
With Thanks in Advance.
