>Description:
Setting named_enable="YES" to /etc/rc.conf and starting named produces the following error at the console:

managed-keys-zone ./IN: loading from master file managed-keys.bind failed: file not found

Apparently this is a file used by DNSSEC and is not present in the default configuration. The server still starts and answers queries normally, this is not a fatal error.
>How-To-Repeat:
Set named_enable="YES" to /etc/rc.conf and execute service named start
>Fix:
Creating the above file as an empty file in /etc/namedb/working hushes the error message (i.e. touch /etc/namedb/working/managed-keys.bind). Either the default named configuration should be changed or bsdinstall should create this file during installation.
