+# Please note that most distributions have BIND configured to run under

+# the user "named" once the daemon relinquishes its rights. Therefore,
+# the file "dns.keytab" must be readable by the user that BIND run as.
+# If BIND is running as a non-root user, the "dns.keytab" file must have its
+# permissions altered to allow thge daemon to read it. In the FC6
+# example, execute the commands:
+#
+# chgrp named /usr/local/samba/private/dns.keytab
