I had it running on a 200 MHz box with 32 MB RAM, and it failed occasionally, with no indication as to why. However, I've since re-worked named.conf, and have not experienced an unexpected failure in the past 6 months. The original named.conf was used with bind 8, and I just kept it when I upgraded to bind9 (except for the logging configuration, which changed significantly). It was when I ditched the old named.conf and re-wrote it for bind9, including more refined logging configuration, that stability was greatly improved. Of course, for a lot of the time that bind9 was crashing, it was running versions prior to the version that was actually released with woody, since this box was running woody before it was released. noah -- _______________________________________________________ | Web: http://web.morgul.net/~frodo/ | PGP Public Key: http://web.morgul.net/~frodo/mail.html
