NAME

       named.conf - configuration file for **named**

SYNOPSIS

       named.conf

DESCRIPTION

       named.conf is the configuration file for named.

       For  complete  documentation  about  the  configuration  statements,  please  refer to the
       Configuration Reference section in the BIND 9 Administrator Reference Manual.

       Statements are enclosed in braces and  terminated  with  a  semi-colon.   Clauses  in  the
       statements are also semi-colon terminated. The usual comment styles are supported:
