# User to run named as: NAMED_USER=named # Group to use for named related files and directories. # By default, named will also run as the primary group of $NAMED_USER, # which will usually be the same as what's listed below, but not # necessarily if something other than the default of "named" is used. NAMED_GROUP=named # Options to run named with. At least -u $NAMED_USER is required, but # additional options may be added if needed. NAMED_OPTIONS="-u $NAMED_USER" # If this is set to YES, then before starting named the startup script # will make sure that /etc/rndc.key (if it exists) and the enitre contents # of /var/named are chowned to $NAMED_USER:$NAMED_GROUP. If some of these # files are improperly owned, named will refuse to start or may not work # properly. This is also a useful setting when upgrading from an older BIND # package that would run as root. # # If NAMED_CHOWN is set to anything other than YES (or is unset), then these # files will not be chowned automatically and the admin will handle any # required file ownerships. NAMED_CHOWN=NO
