# /etc/rc.d/named start
# ndc start
A DNS server in FreeBSD relies on the BIND daemon. This daemon is called 'named' for obvious reasons.
named - the bind daemon
ndc - name daemon control program
/etc/namedb - directory where all the bind information resides
/etc/namedb/named.conf - daemon configuration file
zone files are usually contained within the /etc/namedb directory, and contain the information (query answers from your site) served by your name server.
