- Since I am running a cached namesever, this data is lost when the
- machine is booted. I guess I am asking is there anyway to keep a
- file on disk which is the result of continuous operation of uptime
- thus not requiring "so many lookups from other servers" after the
- machine has been rebooted.
-
- For example, here is my named.boot file
-
-
- ; #ident "@(#)cmd-inet:etc/named.boot 1.2"
- ;
- ; boot file for name server
- ;
- directory /etc/inet
- cache . root.cache
- primary rn.com rn.zone
- primary miles.com miles.zone
-
- and root.cache contains:
