Apparently if you pass named the -S argument with anything above 128, then it seems to work just fine (reserved-sockets in the config doesn't seem to help). I just ran into the same annoyance. Try it out like so: /usr/sbin/named -f -g -S 256 Not sure why this is happening other than the default limits not being honored and/or get botched by setrlimit() in there somewhere... Hope that helps.
