DNS Server (BIND) turned itself off?

[Antidote]

This morning I woke up to find all my websites down. After further inspection in the Plesk 8.3 cp I found that "DNS Server (BIND)" had turned itself off.

Why would it do this and how can I stop this happening again?

I have just experianced the same problem. Did you find the Antidote...er... Antidote?

To enable service

chkconfig named on

To see why it failed (stoped)

grep -i named /var/log/messages

That will give you a heads up on why the service failed - as to never having it happen again, I think that is never going to happen - no matter what you do its always possible for something to happen due to a stupid user, configuration error, etc.

But at least this will point you in the right direction for troubleshooting.
