      Hi,

      I have had this problem for a while.  The unbound service dies time from time. Sometimes it works for a few days, some time it dies once a day.
      Starting service and it runs for a while again.

      Im running 2.3.4-p1.

      Turned on level 5 loging in the dns resolver settings and this is the only log i have found:
