I try whith bind non-chrooted, I try to configure manualy, or with redhat-config-bind Actual Results: but I never succed in starting bind. Expected Results: I read a lot how-to and forum, some people have the same probleme like my problem. I'm not specialist in Bind DNS. Additional info: What sort of mistake do I? Thank you Jean-Francois DUMONT France
Do you have both bind and caching-nameserver installed? Does the file /etc/named.conf have a section called "options", and in that section an option called "directory" with value "/var/named"? Are the missing files in /var/named ? I may be mistaken, but at first sight, this seems to be a support question, not a bug. Have you already tried the fedora-list? http://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list
Please try system-config-bind off of rawhide.
I've got same configuration but x86_64 and same problem. In /var/named/chroot/etc/named.conf I added: include "/etc/named.custom"; and it works. I also have to edit every file by hand since redhat-config-bind removes the: include "/etc/named.custom"; every time it saves files and it also makes weird zone files (they zone files dont make sense: where $ORIGIN shold be I find SOA). Then I updated to system-config-bind, a little improvement but it still makes weird zone files that I have to edit by hand. I've read bind 9.2.3 works fine but I have to upgrade lots of dependencies.

fixed in bind-9.2.4rc7-10, bind-chroot-9.2.4rc7-10, caching-nameserver-7.3-3
