Secondary DNS server; named.conf error on Logwatch

[rdolfsma]

Hi All,

I have a secondary dns server, pulling its domains off some other machine. Works fine, but i do have an error in my log (Logwatch);

**Unmatched Entries**
/etc/named.conf:47: '}' expected near end of file: 14 Time(s)


The server does work fine though. My named.conf (if i need to add/remove lines/functions; please tell me. Have yet to finish the book, i'm not a BIND Guru);

// BIND 9 CONFIGURATION

acl "xfer" {
 127.0.0.1;
 xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx/24;
 xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx/24;
};

options {
directory "/var/named";
pid-file "/var/run/named/named.pid";
allow-transfer { xfer; };
notify yes;
recursion yes;
allow-recursion { xfer; };
allow-query { any; };
version "you must be joking";
};

# allow { 127.0.0.1; } keys { "rndc-key"; };
# };

// rndc-key
include "/etc/rndc.key";
include "/var/named/secondaries.include";

The 'logging' was commented out by me because i wasn't seeing anything in Logwatch anymore...

Anyone know what sloud resolve the error?

I need more of the named.conf file. The error states that the problem is in line 47 of named.conf or close to it. /etc/named.conf:47.

Hello jyorgey,

This is line 47 (the last line in the named.conf);

include "/var/named/secondaries.include";

Sorry for the delay. Check the syntax in the secondaries.include file. How many zone are in this file? The error looks like there is a missing "}".
