Hello, if you are talking about a problem such as this:
Code:
# /etc/init.d/named restart
Stopping named:
named: already running
You can manually stop named by executing:
Code:
# killall -9 named
# /etc/init.d/named start
Also, check your firewall configuration to ensure that port 953 is open, tcp. This will usually fix the problem. rndc reload needs port 953 open.
