Bind9 / Named Question

James,

I was being lazy when I said that I copied the files over. Really, I attempted 
to edit the new configuration files as written by the installer to reflect my 
local customizations. FWIW Bind is running and correctly resolving all domain 
look-ups, but just keeps generating these irritating messages to syslog with 
respect to trust.com. The other thing, is what process constantly is 
generating these attempted validations?

Thanks!

CMR
