Package: bind Version: 4.9.3-BETA24-1 We installed bind on a fresh system. We configured the nameserver and wanted to start it, and tried `ndc start'. It complained about /var/run/named.pid not existing. We tried /etc/init.d/bind start, and nothing happened. On closer inspection, the `bind' script redirects stdout from ndc to /dev/null.
There are, I think, two bugs here: (a) `ndc start' should not fail if there is no pid file. (b) `ncd' should produce error messages to stderr, not stdout. Ian.
