that your remarks are helpful but leave me perplexed.

Here is what I have from a RELENG_4_5 update

tsitc2# cat /usr/src/contrib/bind/Version
8.2.4-REL
tsitc2# head -15 /usr/src/UPDATING
Updating Information for FreeBSD STABLE users, 4.5 security branch

A reverse chronology since 4.0 was released is included, followed by

This is for the 4.5 release branch.  All entries since 4.5 are an

By this count, we're at 4.5-RELEASE-p4.

tsitc2# tail -5 /usr/src/UPDATING

$FreeBSD: src/UPDATING,v 1.73.2.50.2.9 2002/04/30 08:55:29 asmodai Exp $
tsitc2# 

So it looks as if I have

4.5-RELEASE-p4 but yet BIND 8.2.4.

There arn no signs that the cvs update failed.

So, what version of BIND __should__ be supplied in 4.5-RELEASE-p4 ?

Thank you,

Yours sincerely.
