I downloaded Bind 9.3.1 source, compiled it and installed it on a Fedora
Core 4 system. Then I imported the config files from an old RH 7.3 DNS
server (running some old 8. version of Bind).

After changing a few lines in the named.config file, named do start. But I'm
not able to start the named with the "-u named" flag. I get a error that it
can't access /var/run/namned.pid.

I the did a "touch /var/run/named.pid; chown named:named
/var/run/named.pid", but that does not help. Now named complain that the
file already exists.

How can I get this to work?
