yep, it has access to the pid file. It creates that one okay, but for
some reason ndc(?) doesn't create the /var/run/ndc file, which I believe
is a pipe of some description.

named actually runs fine. it's just manipulating it via ndc that's the
problem. I wrote my own sb.ndc that does most of the funcitons that I
need, but it would be nice to have the proper ndc working.

any other suggestions?

If a manager offers "constructive advice" and no-one is around to hear
it, 
    is he still an idiot?
