bind/named problem?
Hello!
I installed fedora 7 on one of my servers about 3 weeks ago and setup
the local name server for my local network. I set this up, originally
~3 years ago, because I was seeing some serious latency problems with
my isp's name servers. I also do a lot of repair on machines that
belong to clients and just thought it would be easier to run my own
nameservers.
I seems that after the 07/31/07 update of the following bind packages
I have an intermittent problem with dns resolution.

Jul 31 00:14:20 Updated: bind-chroot.i386 31:9.4.1-8.P1.fc7
Jul 31 00:16:15 Updated: bind-utils.i386 31:9.4.1-8.P1.fc7
Every so often, maybe 2 to 3 times a day, my name resolution will go
south. I have to restart the name service for it to start working
again. Some times it requires multiple restarts before it will work
again.
I noticed that the ownership of the files located in
/var/named/chroot/var/named = root:root sso I changed them to
named:named and this did not help.
I have checked the content of the forward and reverse zone files for
my local network and all seems to be in order. I also removed the
caching-nameserver package and that did not help.
Any thoughts or info would be greatly appreciated.
