Well, offhand, I'd say it's an MD5 sum of a package named "bind9- default". I don't have that file on my Ubuntu systems.

Presumably, Debian's BIND 9.5.0-P2 package (which is a Debian-specific package, not directly corresponding to any ISC release) has been updated to version 5.1. Thus, an MD5 sum related to this package would also be likely change. You can probably accept it as-is.

Personally, I've found the Debian builds of BIND (also found on Ubuntu) to be less than fully reliable. The same is true of the Red Hat builds of BIND. I've run into several customer servers running one or the other of these on which named was crashing frequently; just rebuilding from the stock source has fixed it every time.

Hi

I'm running bind on Debian Lenny. Does anyone know what the file
"/usr/share/bind9/bind9-default.md5sum" is for ? Googling for it didn't
reveal any desciptions.

According to Debian's package installation checksums, this file has
changed. Is that to be expected ?

The bind package version is 1:9.5.0.dfsg.P2-5.1

Many thanks,
Declan
