>Description:

If one wishes to rename /etc/namedb/named.conf to something else,
perhaps to preserve one's preferences from being reset by mergemaster,
one would expect the named_conf variable from /etc/defaults/rc.conf
to properly specify the new file name. It does not.

/etc/rc.d/named only uses $named_conf when running named-checkconf.  :-(

To specify a different config file one must add -c <filename> to the
named invocation.

>How-To-Repeat:

Add to /etc/rc.conf the following line:
named_conf="/etc/namedb/named.conf.original"

Then:
	mv /etc/namedb/named.conf /etc/namedb/named.conf.original
	/etc/rc.d/named restart

and on restart named dies with fatal error because it could not find
named.conf.

>Fix:

Change this line (3rd from the end) in /etc/rc.d/named from

command_args="-u ${named_uid:=root}

to

command_args="-u ${named_uid:=root} -c ${named_conf:=/etc/namedb/named.conf}"

Perhaps if named_conf is not specified at all one should not specify -c with
what is believed to be the default path named would use without -c.
