well, that is certainly an idea. i found myself installing bind9 numerous times and then chrooting it by hand, which can definitely be automated. whether that's done in debconf or by a separate package, well, we'd have to discuss that. i would love to have this package because i am just starting and in search for packages in general, but i see your point. fact is, bind9 does not need to be compiled for chroot like bind8, so it's really easy, even with a binary distribution. how about this: i'll make the package (which will basically be a postinst/prerm pair and nothing else, and then we can always integrate those scripts with the bind9 package. it's nicer to debug and play around when bind9 can just stay on the system. martin; (greetings from the heart of the sun.) \____ echo mailto: !#^."<*>"|tr "<*> mailto:"; [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- "... doch warum sollte nicht jeder einzelne aus seinem leben ein kunstwerk machen koennen?" -- michel foucault
