No wonder I didn't see it!   :-)

Don't hold your breath on #2, I've got a lot of other stuff to do first.

I'm currently replacing some Redhat Linux servers at work with DL.
I figured I'd start out with the easy ones, so I installed two DL BIND
servers to replace my employer's RH BIND servers.  The master named
server worked fine.  The slave server wouldn't transfer the zones -
permission denied.  OK, the master isn't giving the slave permission -
WRONG!  It turns out the /etc/named directory in the _jail_ is only
writable by root and the named process is running as user "named".
(even though I ran "chown named /etc/named" on the _real_ directory)

It's amazing how much easier it is to find bugs in software when you
actually USE it!  :-)    Fixes will be committed soon, for 1.1 & 1.0.
