Hello, thanks for replying. Regarding building BIND, are you sure the setting should go in make.conf and not src.conf - here is the relevant text from the src.conf man page: "WITHOUT_BIND Setting this variable will prevent any part of BIND from being built. When set, it also enforces the following options: WITHOUT_BIND_DNSSEC WITHOUT_BIND_ETC WITHOUT_BIND_LIBS_LWRES WITHOUT_BIND_MTREE WITHOUT_BIND_NAMED WITHOUT_BIND_UTILS" Thankyou for the web link for the DLZ driver however I had already seen it; my confusion is what is the difference between BIND built with the DLZ LDAP driver and BIND built with the 'sdb' (simplified database interface) option as specified in http://bind9-ldap.bayour.com/ and as built in the dns/bind97-sdb port? If these are two different ways for BIND to use LDAP, which one should I choose? Thanks.
