BIND not starting in PLESK 7.5.4 on CentOS 4.2 server

[mgnetuk06]

Hi all.

First post here.

I have a CentOS 4.2 box running PLESK 7.5.4. Everything works fine except BIND/DNS. The 'BIND' service refuses to start from within PLESK. I have tried to start it manually from the terminal using:

# service named start

results in

# started [OK]

message. However, when I issue the

# service named status

command, I get the following error message:

# service named status
rndc: connect failed: connection refused

BIND does not appear to be working, although it says it starts OK.

I downloaded CentOS 4.2 from the CentOS download web site, burned the ISO to CD, did a minimal install, and installed direct from the PLESK server. I have the latest versions of most packages.

Any help appreciated.

Kind regards,

MGNETUK06

About DNS: it is well know problem between Plesk and SeLinux secure police. You should set selinux in permissive or disabled mode and reboot your server:
[root@server ~]# cat /etc/sysconfig/selinux # This file controls the state of SELinux on the system.
# SELINUX= can take one of these three values:
# enforcing - SELinux security policy is enforced.
# permissive - SELinux prints warnings instead of enforcing.
# disabled - SELinux is fully disabled.
SELINUX=enforcing
# SELINUXTYPE= type of policy in use. Possible values are:
# targeted - Only targeted network daemons are protected.
# strict - Full SELinux protection.
SELINUXTYPE=targeted
