Named seems to be having a problem in multi-threaded smp environments. ISC seems to be recommending that you download the latest named package and build it with threading turned off. You could attempt this an see if the problem goes away. Red Hat has not decided how we are going to approach these problems yet. Dan
We believe this might be solved by the new threads library. Please attempt this with the latest Beta release of 8.1. Dan
