Bug Description

Binary package hint: ubuntu-docs

https://help.ubuntu.com/10.04/serverguide/C/dns-configuration.html could use some updating.

/var/cache/bind is now the working directory for the name server daemon, so the full paths used in the examples don't work anymore. See http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1089473 for a nice discussion of what works and what doesn't.

I followed the server guide instructions, it didn't work, and then I changed from absolute paths to relative paths and it did.
