No named.conf. A named.conf in /etc though. I ran the config-bind redhat program, and it created a named.conf, but still no sym link from the chroot/etc/named.conf to the /etc/named.conf. Also the various defaults are each in a different config file, and that was not the case in whatever ver of Centos 4 that I first did the build. So I had a long careful look at what they had, and what I had running and fixed the sym links and put it all together. I still realize that I better check it over carefully; make sure that non-recursion is working and so on.
