System name:		Paddington.MIT.EDU
Type and version:	Ultra-60 9.1.11 (with mkserv)
Display type:		ffb

Shell:			/bin/athena/tcsh
Window manager:		sawfish

What were you trying to do?
	final reboot at end of workstation update to 9.1

What's wrong:
	xlogin wouldn't start, ws would only allow root login
	on console.

What should have happened:
	Standard Athena xlogin should have been available.

Please describe any relevant documentation references:
	Logged in as root and found named was not running,
	nor would it start.  /var/adm/messages contained:

	Jul 16 13:07:15 Paddington.MIT.EDU named[525]: [ID 866145 daemon.notice] starting BIND 9.2.1
	Jul 16 13:07:15 Paddington.MIT.EDU named[525]: [ID 866145 daemon.error] zone '.': wrong class for view '<default view>'
	Jul 16 13:07:15 Paddington.MIT.EDU named[525]: [ID 866145 daemon.crit] loading configuration: failure
	Jul 16 13:07:15 Paddington.MIT.EDU named[525]: [ID 866145 daemon.crit] exiting (due to fatal error)

	I checked and the update had not installed a new
	named.conf though the srvd does have one which
	differs; it no longer has the "hs" root info.

	I commented out this portion of my old named.conf
	file and was then able to start named.

	//zone "." hs {
	//      type stub;
	//      masters {
	//              18.72.0.3;
	//              18.70.0.160;
	//              18.71.0.151;
	//      };
	//      file "/var/athena/named.hs";
	//};
