Linux: Start / Stop / Restart BIND DNS Server

To start, stop, or restart the BIND DNS server on a Linux system, you will need to use the systemctl command. Here are the commands you can use:

To start the BIND DNS server:

sudo systemctl start named

To stop the BIND DNS server:

sudo systemctl stop named

To restart the BIND DNS server:

sudo systemctl restart named

Note: these commands assume that the BIND DNS server is installed and configured to use systemd. If you are using a different init system (such as init.d or upstart), you may need to use different commands to control the BIND DNS server.

It's also worth noting that you may need to use sudo to run these commands, depending on your system configuration and the privileges of your user account.
