I recently moved my DNS over to OSX from my Linux server, but I was wondering if any one knew what the best way to restart named is??
I have been using "kill -9 PID" but is there somthing like appache has with "apachectl graceful"
Thanks.

kill -9 is not a graceful kill. If you do a kill -1, that is a "HUP", and will tell the process to restart itself.

If you are using Aaron Faby's SecureDNS chrooted implementation of BIND (available here: http://www.serverlogistics.com/downl....php#securedns) , you can use OS X's SystemStarter facility to start, stop, or restart the process:
sudo SystemStarter start BIND
sudo SystemStarter stop BIND
sudo SystemStarter restart BIND
