> /var/named/chroot/etc
> named.conf  rndc.conf  rndc.key <any other config file for Bind>


YES, I copied named.conf rndc.conf rndc.key to /var/named/chroot/etc.

[root at mailgw ~]# cd /var/named/chroot/etc/
[root at mailgw etc]# pwd
/var/named/chroot/etc
[root at mailgw etc]# ls -al
total 56
drwxr-x--- 2 root named 4096 Jul  5 13:26 .
drwxr-x--- 6 root named 4096 Apr 11 15:41 ..
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root   347 May 14 16:59 localtime
-rw-r--r-- 1 root named 1681 Jul  5 12:46 named.conf
-rw-r--r-- 1 root named 1114 Jul  5 10:28 rndc.conf
-rw-r--r-- 1 root named  113 Apr 27 15:28 rndc.key

You can see above files and their permission .

Here is my named.conf. pls see below


[root at mailgw etc]# cat named.conf

         // query-source address * port 53;
};

};

zone "example77.com " IN {
        type master;
        file "master/example77.com.zone";
};

include "/etc/rndc.key";


here is my rndc.conf file. pls see below

 */

options {
        default-server  localhost;
        default-key     "rndckey";
};

server localhost {
        key     "rndckey";
};

include "/etc/rndc.key";

here is my rndc.key. pls see below.

[root at mailgw etc]# cat rndc.key
key "rndckey" {
        algorithm       hmac-md5;
        secret
"pS6vJwWxIHVKPO6uOwwzd41Q8ubhGYcm69pJWNh3oeADrdSLo7dHIH24nxep";
};



and also, I added 2 syslinks to /etc. Pls see below.
[root at mailgw etc]# pwd
/etc
[root at mailgw etc]# ln -s /var/named/chroot/etc/rndc.conf rndc.conf
[root at mailgw etc]# ln -s /var/named/chroot/etc/named.conf named.conf

[root at mailgw etc]# ls -al /etc/named.conf
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 32 Jul  5 10:33 /etc/named.conf ->
/var/named/chroot/etc/named.conf

[root at mailgw etc]# ls -al /etc/rndc.conf
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 31 Jul  5 10:32 /etc/rndc.conf ->
/var/named/chroot/etc/rndc.conf

And, Below symlink was added by default.
[root at mailgw etc]# ls -al /etc/rndc.key
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root named 31 Apr 27 15:28 /etc/rndc.key ->
/var/named/chroot//etc/rndc.key


Then, I did cd to /var/named/chroot/var/named/ as follows.
[root at mailgw etc]# cd /var/named/chroot/var/named/

I do not want to plce my zone files @ var/named/chroot/var/named/slaves
So, I created a directory called master as follows.

[root at mailgw named]# mkdir master
And, Changed permision as follows.
[root at mailgw named]# chown -R named:named master/
[root at mailgw named]# chmod -R 770 master/
[root at mailgw named]# ls -al
total 36
drwxr-x--- 5 root  named 4096 Jul  5 10:36 .
drwxr-x--- 5 root  named 4096 Mar 14  2003 ..
drwxrwx--- 2 named named 4096 Aug 26  2004 data
drwxrwx--- 2 named named 4096 Jul  5 10:36 master
drwxrwx--- 2 named named 4096 Jul  5 10:36 slaves

Then ,
[root at mailgw named]# cd master/
[root at mailgw master]# pwd
/var/named/chroot/var/named/master
[root at mailgw master]# touch example77.com.zone

[root at mailgw master]# chown named:named example77.com.zone

And, I included my zone info to that file. here it is.

[root at mailgw master]# cat example77.com.zone
$TTL    86400
@       IN      SOA     gateway.example77.com. root.example77.com. (
                        2006101604 ; Serial
                        1800       ; Refresh
                        300        ; Retry
                        360000     ; Expire
                        86400 )    ; Minimum

                IN      NS      gateway.example77.com.

                IN      MX      10      gateway.example77.com.
                IN      MX      20      mail.example77.com.

                IN      A       192.168.0.3

gateway      IN      A       192.168.0.3
mail            IN      A       192.168.0.2



Fiannly, I restarted named , pls see below.

[root at mailgw master]# /etc/init.d/named restart
Stopping named:                                            [  OK  ]
Starting named:                                            [  OK  ]

Whar exalty has happened.

I think you are alreday runnig bind 9.3.3 under chroot jail on centOS 5.

Pls help me to solve this issue. This is a MUST for me . So I need your
help.

Pls NOTE that domain I have given above is example77.com. I can not give my
real doamin name due to security reason. We can go ahead with that doamin
name. when it gets up and running, I can change it to my real dmain name.
