Description of problem: The access rights and ownership of the zone/journalizing files are reset to chmod 640 and the ownership to root:named after I update Bind. Because 'dynamic updates' requires the named server to be able to write to the journalizing files, these default access rights won't do. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): bind-9.5.0-28.P1.fc8 bind-9.5.0-27.rc1.fc8.i386 Steps to Reproduce: 1. yum update bind Actual results: The jnl files have ownership root:named, and chmods 640. Expected results: Either the jnl files have ownership named:named, or they have a chmod of 660. Additional info: I know the problem also occurred in former versions of Bind, but I'm not sure which version exactly.
After consulting the FC list, "Christopher K. Johnson" mentioned that dynamic zones should be placed inside the dynamic folder (/var/named/dynamic or /var/named/chroot/var/named/dynamic)
