In a chroot Bind installation, named.conf is located in /var/named/chroot/etc/. In that file, references to files for includes and other zones can be made as "filename" without a path. What is the expected location when no path is used, simply up one dir under chroot/? While moving a DNS from one machine to another, I noticed all ref's are "/etc/filename" and they are in the same dir as named.conf which obviously looks different from all the sample files.
Thanks! jlc

Jumped the gun there:) options { directory "/var/named"; // the default };
CMIIW, so when not using a path, this is where it expects files.

---- relative the chroot path of course
