Please be gentle with me. I've chosen to run BIND 9.2.2rc1 as advised by someone on the BIND maillist. I can only hope that I installed it properly. It required OpenSSL 0.9e or higher which I was able to get to install with "make; make install". Then I continued with another attempt at BIND. I finally finished with the installation but now I can't seem to find a way to confirm that BIND is properly installed and running. When I start it, it does not report the version as the docs seem to indicate it should. Also, running Top doesn't show anything like BIND or named or anything else that reasonably indicates that I've succeeded in starting it. Maybe I'm not starting it correctly. Can someone please provide me with the official syntax? -Jamie <>< To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
