	There is only one /etc/rc.d/named script; in fact, I have neven seen
	one from bind9-3 or bind9-7 [in /usr/local/etc/rc.d].

	You're right about dup instances of named going!  I'll kill9 and 
	see what happens when i restart.

	You're good, Jon!

	Somebody mentioned this yesterday but i had already KILLED my named.
	Just by script.   So, should I follow the FBSD tradition of: if it
	works, why upgrade? Or should I try buind97 again?

	.... tHe reason for all this caution is that bind97 output a trucloak
	of errors that well way the hell over my head.  And I really do need
	UDP.
