Comment 1 for bug 1969756

Thanks for taking the time to report the bug.

Initially I don't think it makes much sense to use /etc/default/named in order to configure named's initialization options. In the container world, it seems to me that it's much more common to control the behaviour of application via environment variables.

I agree that it should be possible for users to select which user will own the named process, so I went ahead and implemented support for a new environment variable, BIND9_USER, which can be set when creating the container.

The image has been rebuilt and retagged, so this new variable should be supported in the latest tag. We are working on updating the image documentation to reflect it as well. For this reason, I'm marking this bug as Fix Released. Let us know if this works for you.

Thanks.
