• The BIND DNS server has already been deprecated and removed from Plesk for Windows.
    If a Plesk for Windows server is still using BIND, the upgrade to Plesk Obsidian 18.0.70 will be unavailable until the administrator switches the DNS server to Microsoft DNS. We strongly recommend transitioning to Microsoft DNS within the next 6 weeks, before the Plesk 18.0.70 release.
  • The Horde component is removed from Plesk Installer. We recommend switching to another webmail software supported in Plesk.

FC3 and BIND

So I have an issue right now concerning Plesk 7.5.4, FedoraCore 3, and BIND...

Essentially, Plesk seems to want use /var/named/run-root for BIND but when using this dir I get the following error:

Mar 6 03:31:12 cubed named[3651]: could not configure root hints from 'named.root': file not found
Mar 6 03:31:12 cubed named[3651]: loading configuration: file not found

Now, this error goes away once I specify the BIND ROOTDIR to be /var/named/chroot. BIND loads with no errors.

The only problem is that zone records are stored under /var/named/run-root/var and setting the BIND ROOTDIR to /var/named/chroot (so BIND will load successfully) results in the zone files not being loaded, ergo DNS requests become meaningless.

How can I fix my system so that I get no errors when using the default ROOTDIR of /var/named/run-root?

Thanks in advance.
