Question Solaris 8 bind 9 named question
Hi,

I can't rememeber what passwd is set for the "named" user in bind.
Is there possibly a default one or anyway to find it ?

I'm worried about changing it and causing other issues, if I did change it
what other files would I need to edit ?

Smilie

Thanks

BIND functionality includes the following:

In.named configuration options - See the named.conf(4) and the named-bootconf(1M) man pages.

Extensions to the resolver (3RESOLV) interface that are safe to use in multithreaded applications.

The addition of the ndc(1M) command, which is used to start or stop reconfigure in.named, and the dnskeygen(1M) command, which is used to create TSIG and DNSSEC keys. See the dig(1M) man page for instructions on how to gather information from the DNS servers.
