Done this and bind has no issues restarting. Problem however is I still can not for the life of me ping an external website. It just seems like such a silly thing that it works when bind is off and doesn't when it's active... -- Regards Justin Hartman PGP Key ID: 102CC123
Is this a fresh bind install? Or have you made any changes to the configs? A fresh install should resolve names normally. Also, do you have resolveconf installed? It will swtich out your /etc/resolv.conf file when you start up bind, take note of what is in there beofre and after you start up bind, maybe something in there is messing things up.
