You need to make sure that each bind instance has its own set of named.conf/zone files/pid file/ndc channel, that they bind to different interfaces. I also like to force them to have different query ports, but this shouldn't be necessary as long as they are on different interfaces. Steinar Haug, Nethelp consulting, [email protected]
