The trouble I've been having has to do with bind/named. My server failed when the old bind9 reached its end-of-life. Thr new bind97 is not a drop-in replacement and from the troubles I See in my /var/log/messages, I don't understand why things are suddenly breaking. Can I go back to the original, builtin bind in /contrib? Else, how can I go to the dns/bind9 that has worked for years? thanks for any insights, gary -- Gary Kline kline@thought.org http://www.thought.org Public Service Unix Journey Toward the Dawn, E-Book: http://www.thought.org The 7.97a release of Jottings: http://jottings.thought.org
