I recently built a 2.4.30 kernel with grsecurity on a centos 3.4 server, w/ cpanel installed. For the grsecurity I selected the default "Medium" settings.

Upon booting to the new kernel, I was getting errors with named and trying to access cpanel or whm over https. The follow are what seem to be the relavent messages from the log files

Named

Code: Select all

From what I have supplied can anyone suggest what might be the problem and what I could do to correct it?

Many thanks,

Scratch this question. The problem wasn't grsecurity related at all. it was due to nptl.
