Starting BIND -CodeIdol

You can use the chkconfig command to get BIND configured to start at boot:

     [root@bigboy tmp]# chkconfig named on

To start, stop, and restart BIND after booting, use:

     [root@bigboy tmp]# service named start
     [root@bigboy tmp]# service named stop
     [root@bigboy tmp]# service named restart

Remember to restart the BIND process every time you make a change to the configuration file for the changes to take effect on the running process.
