FC4 bus error message at boot time

Thanks. That did it. However. Why is "named" required to be there since I'm 
not running Bind?t
Bind was installed by default. However, since this is a workstation, I 
uninstalled Bind using RPM -e. It seems that that left some junk around.

No, none of them, as explained above.

>If bind isn't installed, I'd recommend doing a yum install bind
Why should I do it, since I'm not interested in having it?

I have not installed anything with RPM --force or modified any settings 
manually. I keep the system updated with Yum.

Can I erase that line "named:x:25:25:Named:/var/named:/sbin/nologin" in 
/etc/passwd if I delete the line for named in /etc/shadow?

Thanks,
