<p><font size=2 face=Arial><span style='font-size:10.0pt'>I have been having
an issue with Bind hanging for several months. I am currently running BIND

<p><font size=2 face=Arial><span style='font-size:10.0pt'>It hangs at different
times and intervals. The only thing I find in the messages log is the last
entry for named before the hang. Does not appear to be a memory or resource

kill the <span class=SpellE>pid</span> using kill -9 (<span class=SpellE>pidid</span><span
