Description Need Real Name 2001-01-22 02:54:10 UTC
named can't deal /var/named/*. 
Redhat 7 have a contradiction on named.
named is booted by root, but the owner of /var/named is named.
ndc is booted by root.
how can I do for solving this problem?

What problem is this causing?
named is running as user named (the init script runs as root, but the actual
named process drops privileges) and can read but not write all files in
/var/named. This is the intended behavior.
