<H3>Overview</H3>
|
|
|
|
<P>BIND 8 is much more configurable than previous release of BIND.
|
|
There are entirely new areas of configuration, such as access control lists
|
|
and categorized logging. Many options that previously applied to all zones
|
|
can now be used selectively. These features, plus a consideration of future
|
|
configuration needs led to the creation of a new configuration file format.
|
|
|
|
<H3>The Configuration File</H3>

|
|
|
<H4><A HREF="example.html">Example Configuration</A></H4>
|
|
|
|
<H4>Statements</H4>
|
|
|
|
<P>A BIND 8 configuration consists of statements and comments.
|
|
Statements end with a semicolon. Many statements contain a block of
|
|
substatements, which are also terminated with a semicolon.</P>
|
|
|
|
<P>The following statements are supported:
|
|

<H3>Converting from BIND 4.9.x</H3>
|
|
|
|
<P>BIND 4.9.x configuration files can be converted to the new format
|
|
by using <CODE>src/bin/named/named-bootconf.pl</CODE>, a perl script that
|
|
is part of the BIND 8.1 source kit.
