Hello, it's a lot of time that i'm trying to configure and work a bind9
server correctly on a local network(instead of to use the /etc/hosts file)
The configuration, i'm quite sure is correct however it happens a strange
thing..
My dns server doesn't work..
it doesn't resolve the host names..

Here the named log:

I don't know what to do..
Somebody told me that the problem (perhaps) could be that one between "---"
->(Oct 23 17:33:28 andrea named[7512]:

> binding TCP socket: address in use).

it seems that the ports are used from an other service!!
But think that the number of the port change everytime that i start bind and
no one service interfere with this(ftp?)..
My network is so structured:
I have a router (with adsl modem) on the wan side and it joins the pc where
there is the dns server(with 2 lan cards and suse 9.1) and on the lan side
there are some pc with win-linux..
Thanks
bye Andrea.

Could you provide a little more info on this box?
NT4 server or Workstation?
Why use BIND? NT4 server has its own DNS service that IMO is much easier to
administer. Unless you are using BIND to get it views feature.
If you are using RRAS do you have the DNS proxy enabled? This would cause
the port conflict you're getting.
