named problems

Hi

I've been, for several days now, getting the following messages in the
log:

Security Violations

This is happening since I did, one day, an upgrade that I don't know if
it included bind9 or not. Anyway, since then, I've upgraded several
times, included once passwd-base, who told me there were some
inconsistencies between debian and system users, so it ran a script to
update /etc/passwd (it seems). But the messages are still showing up on
the longs.

What is wrong? named is being run as root, and the /var/cache/bind
directory belongs to the bind user.

What should I do to fix it?

cheers
