Wouter,

Thanks for your reply.
Corrected my mistake :) Stupid one.

now i am getting this error:

nsd: /usr/local/etc/nsd/nsd.db wrong type of file
nsd started pid 153

its complaining about the nsd.db
I am not sure how I should go about recreating the db file.

I found an issue similar to mine -->

Kind Regards,
