Purple status removal… or correct DNS tests

Hello folks,


I have started monitoring DNS tests on a server and It has never  
worked correctly (always red status):

- Ubuntu 8
- bind 9.x running in a jail environement.


I haven't been able to find the DNS test correctly explained… any  
advise will be welcome.

There is not really any good reason for this test not to work (as It  
works in a very straightforward way on all my other servers (which are  
not based on the same OS))…

-- 

As I couldn't find the solution and to avoid multiple (false positive)  
warning i have decided to remove this test from the "bb-hosts-dist"  
for that precise server. I am now seeing a purple warning that I can't  
seem to remove…

I have tried:

./bb localhost "drop server.name.com dns"


This hasn't solve my issue… SO can someone help me to:


1. Correctly configure DNS tests.
2. Remove the "purple" status for this test.


Thanks.
