Some help with BIND9 settings!

[Tasha Smith]

Ok ...soo here is what the output is of  ' ls -lad /var/run ' 
drwxrwxr-x   6 root   daemon     4096 Jan 31 2:08  /var/run 
I tryed to start it again by running this command: 
/etc/rc.d/named start 
but get the same error!
 Here is what i got in my /etc/rc.d/named  file:
 
#!/bin/sh


case "$1" in


start)


/usr/sbin/named -u named


;;


stop)


killall `pidof named` &>/dev/null

That error is fairly explicit. Either you have a stale PID file,
/var/run/named, which should be deleted. Or you have a stale PID file
with permissions that prevent named from deleting & recreating it. Either
way, delete the PID file, and try again. And please, fix your wordwrap to
something under 80 char/line.
