Description of problem: /usr/share/doc/bind-9.5.0/sample/etc/named.conf tries to include /etc/named.root.hints on lines 58, 75 and 118. However, this file is not included in the package, and there is no documentation in Fedora that explains how to create it. (There is some documentation around the net, found via Google.) Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): 9.5.0-29.b2.fc9 How reproducible: 100% Steps to Reproduce: 1. cp /etc/named.conf /etc/named.conf.old 2. cp /usr/share/doc/bind-9.5.0/sample/etc/named.conf /etc/named.conf 3. named-checkconf /etc/named.conf Actual results: /etc/bind/named.conf:58: open: /etc/named.root.hints: file not found Expected results: Comment in named.conf file above line 58 explaining how to create the file; one such way is found here: http://linux-sxs.org/internet_serving/bind9.html OR Include /etc/named.root.hints in bind9 package
Er, or, instead of explaining how to create the file, named.conf could just point to the actual file that IS included: /var/named/named.ca
fixed in rawhide, thanks for report
