Bind configuration has never been easier, I installed bind 9.6, only commented the following line in /etc/named/named.conf.
listen-on { 127.0.0.1; };
Then I added my zone files and it’s ready. Although I’m still seeing the message “the working directory is not writable“, moreover, not only # rndc reload causes this message, but also # /etc/rc.d/named start.

# tail -f /var/log/messages &
# rndc reload
I will get the error message:
named: the working directory is not writable. Read More

I noticed a few visitors came to this blog by searching BIND configuration errors. I had troubles too, later simply copied the configuration files from a Linux server. Here are my configuration files of BIND 9, if you have troubles to make BIND work, you can use them directly or as a starting point. Please note that you may need to convert the text to unix Format, and those steps in the handbook should be done first:
# cd /etc/namedb
# sh make-localhost
Add named_enable=”YES” to /etc/rc.conf Read More
