Hi, I'm having trouble getting the new version of bind to work.. Please ignore that I'm running as root the system will be re-built afterwards...
I unzipped the bind source to /root/bind-9.4.2 Then coppied the BSD wrapper from /usr/src/usr.sbin/bind/Makefile.bsd-wrapper to /root/bind-9.4.2 Then from /root/bind-9.4.2 ran #make -f Makefile.bsd-wrapper Then tried to run named with the follwing command and got the follwing results # /root/bind-9.4.2/bin/named/named -c /var/named/etc/named.conf -d9 -g 3. 22-Mar-2008 12:10:01.950 starting BIND 9.4.2 -c /var/named/etc/named.conf -d9 -g 4. 22-Mar-2008 12:10:01.953 loading configuration from '/var/named/etc/named.conf' 5. 22-Mar-2008 12:10:01.953 set maximum stack size to 33554432: success 6. 22-Mar-2008 12:10:01.953 set maximum data size to 1073741824: success 7. 22-Mar-2008 12:10:01.953 set maximum core size to 9223372036854775807: success 8. 22-Mar-2008 12:10:01.953 set maximum open files to 1024: success 9. 22-Mar-2008 12:10:01.953 listening on IPv6 interfaces, port 53 10. 22-Mar-2008 12:10:01.954 clientmgr @0x420d51b8: create 11. 22-Mar-2008 12:10:01.955 clientmgr @0x420d51b8: createclients 12. 22-Mar-2008 12:10:01.955 clientmgr @0x420d51b8: create new 13. 22-Mar-2008 12:10:01.955 client @0x489a6000: create 14. 22-Mar-2008 12:10:01.955 clientmgr @0x420d51b8: createclients 15. 22-Mar-2008 12:10:01.955 clientmgr @0x420d51b8: create new 16. 22-Mar-2008 12:10:01.955 client @0x45b73800: create 17. 22-Mar-2008 12:10:01.955 listening on IPv4 interface lo0, 127.0.0.1#53 18. 22-Mar-2008 12:10:01.955 clientmgr @0x420d5318: create 19. 22-Mar-2008 12:10:01.955 clientmgr @0x420d5318: createclients 20. 22-Mar-2008 12:10:01.955 clientmgr @0x420d5318: create new 21. 22-Mar-2008 12:10:01.955 client @0x492b9800: create 22. 22-Mar-2008 12:10:01.956 clientmgr @0x420d5318: createclients 23. 22-Mar-2008 12:10:01.956 clientmgr @0x420d5318: create new 24. 22-Mar-2008 12:10:01.956 client @0x492bb000: create 25. 22-Mar-2008 12:10:01.956 listening on IPv4 interface bge0, 10.18.219.3#53 26. 22-Mar-2008 12:10:01.956 clientmgr @0x420d5478: create 27. 22-Mar-2008 12:10:01.956 clientmgr @0x420d5478: createclients 28. 22-Mar-2008 12:10:01.956 clientmgr @0x420d5478: create new 29. 22-Mar-2008 12:10:01.956 client @0x492bb800: create 30. 22-Mar-2008 12:10:01.956 clientmgr @0x420d5478: createclients 31. 22-Mar-2008 12:10:01.956 clientmgr @0x420d5478: create new 32. 22-Mar-2008 12:10:01.956 client @0x4ae8f000: create 33. 22-Mar-2008 12:10:01.957 calling free_rbtdb(.) 34. 22-Mar-2008 12:10:01.957 done free_rbtdb(.) 35. 22-Mar-2008 12:10:01.957 could not configure root hints from 'standard/root.hint': file not found 36. 22-Mar-2008 12:10:01.957 load_configuration: file not found 37. 22-Mar-2008 12:10:01.957 loading configuration: file not found 38. 22-Mar-2008 12:10:01.957 exiting (due to fatal error) Note: If anyone is interested I could wire 5K to anyone who helps me complete the bind setup, dlz compile option, and dlz bdb database setup along with a simple tool to add and remove dns entries to the database. For someone more knowledgable than myself it could be a weekend project email me if your interested. -Mike
