BIND screwed?

Hello!

I can't understand it, really... (now checked 3 times :>)

     -n      create #cpus worker threads to take advantage of multiple CPUs.
             If no option is given, named will try to determine the number of
             CPUs present and create one thread per CPU.  If named is unable
             to determine the number of CPUs, a single worker thread is creat-
             ed.

Hmmm.... Okay, but it is not used in init of BIND, I checked it twice...

skynet rpmy~# /etc/rc.d/init.d/named start
Uruchomienie uslugi Named..........................................[
ZROBIONE ]
skynet rpmy~# ps ax | grep nam

24103 ?        SN     0:00 named -u named -t /var/lib/named -c
/etc/named.conf
24104 ?        SN     0:00 named -u named -t /var/lib/named -c
/etc/named.conf
24105 ?        SN     0:00 named -u named -t /var/lib/named -c
/etc/named.conf
24106 ?        SN     0:00 named -u named -t /var/lib/named -c
/etc/named.conf
24107 ?        SN     0:00 named -u named -t /var/lib/named -c
/etc/named.conf

Huh??? Five?

Ok... lets go further...

skynet dev~# rpm -V bind
missing    /var/lib/named/dev/null
missing    /var/lib/named/dev/random

Hmmm... I did not touch it.

Then, looking at /var/log/messages:

Feb  6 20:12:18 skynet named[24362]: zone 'localhost': 'check-names' is not
implemented
Feb  6 20:12:18 skynet named[24362]: zone '0.0.127.in-addr.arpa':
'check-names'
is not implemented
Feb  6 20:12:18 skynet named[24362]: the default for the 'auth-nxdomain'
option
is now 'no'
Feb  6 20:12:18 skynet named[24362]: option 'host-statistics' is not yet
implemented
Feb  6 20:12:18 skynet named[24362]: option 'check-names' is not implemented

So, example file has bugs :S.

So BIND is bad, bad, bad :). I won't fix it, because my DNS konwledge is not
too good :).
