It should compile right out of the box without options. Please note that CERT came out yesterday with an advisory confirming what some of us on bind-users@vix.com have been kicking around, namely that your best bet is to first install BIND 4.9.6 to get the improved libs and include files, then install 8.1.1 over the top to get the improved binaries. I'll be coming out with an updated list of my instruction set soon since it was so well received the last time I posted it. Hope this helps, Doug Do thou amend they face, and I'll amend my life. -Shakespeare, "Henry V"
