forwarders { 4.2.2.1; 4.2.2.2; };

However, 'rcnamed start' elicits:

linux:/etc # rcnamed start
Starting name server BIND /etc/named.d/forwarders.conf:7: 'forwarders'
redefined near 'forwarders'
skipped
linux:/etc #

What have I missed?


Dunno... it works for me, in "/etc/named.conf":


options {
directory "/etc/named";
interface-interval 0;
forward first;

forwarders { 1.2.3.4; 1.2.3.5; };

};


But I don't have a "/etc/named.d/forwarders.conf" file. My configuration
is older and inherited from a previous suse install.
