The NetworkManager init script starts named but doesn't appear to use it. When connecting to a network, /etc/resolv.conf points at the DHCP assigned name servers (not the local named).
It appears that named doesn't get started with the -D option by default to enable dbus. Jason?
This is now fixed with bind-9.3.2-30.fc6, and with bind-9.3.2-22.fc5, now being released to FC-5 updates/testing. Now, if the NetworkManager service is enabled in any runlevel, the named initscript will ensure that the named options contain -D.
bind-9.3.2-22.fc5 has been pushed for fc5, which should resolve this issue. If these problems are still present in this version, then please make note of it in this bug report.
Looks like fixed. If still exists, please reopen. Regards, Adam
