The resource agent for named could do with enhancement. This agent is great but could benefit from a few changes. 1/ It runs the daemon as root. This isn't desirable. There isn't much required to change this. Passing named daemon launch line a "-u named" and chowning the directory that holds the pid file seems to be enough (I did this with a chown named:named `dirname $NAMED_pid_file`, after the creation routine there is probably a cleaner way, it may even be better to chgrp and chmod g+w, haven't checked). 2/ Even though this agent changes the listen address to match the IP address of passed to the service. Zone Transfers etc always come from the main IP of the node running the service. This isn't perfect as these are often secured by source IP (on the up level boxes) (and this is a hassle if a large number of nodes in the cluster) and it is confusing that it isn't the cluster service IP. The resource script should probably (even if by an option) change not just listen-on but set "transfer-source", "query-source", "notify-source". There maybe others. RHEL 6 could do with these features too, I have added a bug report for that as Bug #680748.
This message is a notice that Fedora 14 is now at end of life. Fedora has stopped maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 14. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At this time, all open bugs with a Fedora 'version' of '14' have been closed as WONTFIX. (Please note: Our normal process is to give advanced warning of this occurring, but we forgot to do that. A thousand apologies.) Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, feel free to reopen this bug and simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version. Bug Reporter: Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we were unable to fix it before Fedora 14 reached end of life. If you would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version of Fedora, you are encouraged to click on "Clone This Bug" (top right of this page) and open it against that version of Fedora. Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes bugs or makes them obsolete. The process we are following is described here: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/HouseKeeping
