Hello,
since some days (or a week) I have problems with BIND stopping and restarting - sometimes within minutes. Today BIND stopped and started already 70 times.
The logs show a unknown control channel command 'sync ':
received control channel command 'sync DOMAIN.COM'
unknown control channel command 'sync DOMAIN.COM'
received control channel command 'stop -p'
shutting down: flushing changes

We assume that it could arise from an Webmin/Virtualmin update which is adressing the new command 'sync' (as we had all updates installed automatically - changed now to security updates only).
BIND version 9.8.1
Webmin version 1.890
Virtualmin version 6.03
Ubuntu Linux 12.04.1
Kernel and CPU Linux 2.6.32-40-pve on x86_64
Has anybody the same problems or give us a hintz how to fix this?
Thanks!
Mars
