Hello Managers,
Does anybody know what files or config options are required
to make the resolver in BIND v8.1.2 work?
I did an install (not an upgrade, but a custom install) of
DU v4.0D and made the mistake of not installing the subset for
bind. I figured who needs the old version of bind that ships
with 4.0D if I'm going to install BIND 8.1.2, right? Anyway
I then installed jumbo patch 3, and then BIND 8.1.2.
The nslookup command works fine, but because the resolver is
not working, I'm unable to telnet, ftp, sendmail, etc.,
unless I specify IP addresses. I'm sure (almost) that I did
the BIND installation correctly because I did the same to another
AlphaServer that had been running an earlier BIND, and had been
UPGRADED to DU 4.0D. The 8.1.2 resolver works fine on that
machine.
Is my only choice to add the missing BIND subset(s) that I
failed to ask for when I did the custom install of DU 4.0D?
Or is there an easier fix?
Thank you in advance. I'll summarize.
