Thanks to everybody who gave me some advices. Here's the answers I've
received.

FROM Andrew M Townsend <ATOWNSEND@DOLETA.GOV>

The patch isn't available yet, at least that's been published. I had
named core the other day also. My strings of it revealed that it didn't
like the fact that I started named from a remote X session.

Until a patch is released, suggest you enter the following script as a
cron job. Some kind person posted this to the sun-managers list - I
believe it was Matt Massie:

#!/bin/sh

DAEMON="in.named"
COMMAND="/usr/sbin/in.named"

/bin/ps -e | /bin/grep -w $DAEMON > /dev/null

if [ $? != 0 ] ; then
echo "The $DAEMON daemon is NOT running!"
echo "Restarting the daemon with command:"
echo $COMMAND
$COMMAND
/bin/rm -f /etc/dns/core
fi

FROM Jeff Wasilko <jeffw@smoe.org>

The patches are available as T-patches, which means you have to
call in and request access to them. Once they've finished
testing, they'll be released as regular patches.

Jeff
