DNS named.conf path


Hi,

I am running FC2 and I am having problem when restarting named.

This is what is stated in the log files :

Quote:

The issue is that both zone files are in that path, but somehow, named simply couldn't locate it.

This is the content of my /var/named/chroot/etc/named.conf

Quote:
options {
directory "/var/named";
};

logging {
category "lame-servers" { null; };
};

controls {
inet 127.0.0.1 allow { localhost; } keys { rndckey; };
};

zone "." IN {
type hint;
file "named.ca";
};

zone "localhost" IN {
type master;
file "localhost.zone";
allow-update { none; };
};

zone "0.0.127.in-addr.arpa" IN {
type master;
file "named.local";
allow-update { none; };
};

include "/etc/rndc.key";

zone "room-only.net" { type master; file "/var/named/chroot/var/named/zone/room-only.net.dns"; };
zone "hostwebsites.co.uk" { type master; file "/var/named/chroot/var/named/zone/hostwebsites.co.uk.dns"; };
Any ideas?

It should just be /var/named/zone/... and not /var/named/chroot ....
