# Start/stop/restart the BIND name server daemon (named).
# Start bind. In the past it was more secure to run BIND as a non-root
# user (for example, with '-u daemon'), but the modern version of BIND
# knows how to use the kernel's capability mechanism to drop all root
# privileges except the ability to bind() to a privileged port and set
# process resource limits, so -u should not be needed. If you wish to
# use it anyway, chown the /var/run/named and /var/named directories to
# the non-root user. The command options can be set like this in
# /etc/default/named :
# NAMED_OPTIONS="-u daemon"
# So you will not have to edit this script.
# You might also consider running BIND in a "chroot jail",
# a discussion of which may be found in
# /usr/doc/Linux-HOWTOs/Chroot-BIND-HOWTO.
# One last note: rndc has a lot of other nice features that it is not
# within the scope of this start/stop/restart script to support.
# For more details, see "man rndc" or just type "rndc" to see the options.
# Load command defaults:
if [ -f /etc/default/named ] ; then . /etc/default/named ; fi
if [ -f /etc/default/rndc ] ; then . /etc/default/rndc ; fi
# Sanity check. If /usr/sbin/named is missing then it
# doesn't make much sense to try to run this script:
if [ ! -x /usr/sbin/named ]; then
echo "/etc/rc.d/rc.bind: no /usr/sbin/named found (or not executable); cannot start."
exit 1
fi
# Start BIND. As many times as you like. ;-)
# Seriously, don't run "rc.bind start" if BIND is already
# running or you'll get more than one copy running.

# A problem with using "/usr/sbin/rndc stop" is that if you
# managed to get multiple copies of named running it will
# only stop one of them and then can't stop the others even
# if you run it again. So, after doing things the nice way
# we'll do them the old-fashioned way. If you don't like
# it you can comment it out, but unless you have a lot of
# other programs you run called "named" this is unlikely
# to have any ill effects:
