I have successfully built Bind 9.9.1 on Ubuntu 12.04 LTS (Precise Pangolin). Since Ubuntu comes with a previous version of the Bind 9 utilities installed, I uninstall the following packages: apt-get purge bind9-host dnsutils libbind9-80 libdns81 libisc83 libisccc80 libisccfg82 liblwres80 To be able to build bind9, I install the following tools for building software packages: apt-get install build-essential autoconf libtool pkg-config Bind9 has a dependency on OpenSSL: apt-get install libssl-dev After that you should be able to download Bind 9.9.1, configure, make, and make install. See bind-9.9.1/README for info on options to configure. Hopefully this provides some general guidance regardless of distribution. I have a script and some ancillary files that I can send you if you are in fact using Ubuntu 12.04 LTS. Jeffry A.
