bind bind-4.9.3-REL-P1 core dumps with following error?
Farhad Shakeri
Hi
We are running bind-4.9.3-REL-P1 as a secondary server on an
Intel-P120-64M running Solaris-x86 2.5 . She was doing great until
recently it started to core dump when loading the database from the
main server.
Today it died but we could not restart it and system had to be rebooted
to make named work. We got the following error when we tried to start named:

Any clues? Thanks

Hmn. I've never seen that before. Could this possibly a hardware problem.
I suspect you're hardware doesn't have memory parity checking, so a stray
alpha particle could flip a bit ...

You probably got bit by the glitch that B.ROOT-SERVERS.NET experienced
last night. I saw the same thing when I cranked up 4.9.3-T4B. I don't
think it will ever recover from this state (well maybe in a week when
the root NS RRs time out). It probably started working when you rebooted
because either B.ROOT-SERVERS.NET was working correctly or your server
picked another root server to query.

There are also some problems that are addressed by BIND-4.9.4
BETA that could cause the initial problems.
