HOW TO BUILD:
|
||
|
|
-------------
|
||
|
|
4.9.3 is considerably easier to build than previous releases. These
|
||
|
|
are the instructions on how to compile the software. For information
|
||
|
|
on how to create your configuration files (resolv.conf, named.boot, and
|
||
|
|
zone files) see the doc/bog directory and/or get "DNS and BIND" by C.

|
|
|
||
|
|
Note: If you maintain a BSD or are otherwise running a 4.4BSD-based system
|
||
|
|
and want to integrate BIND into it, check out BSD/README.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
1. (optional) If you are going to compile for multiple platforms, you
|
||
|
|
can make a symbolic link tree for each platform to save disk space. To
|
||
|
|
create a directory called "sun4.dir", do:
|
||
|
|
make DST=sun4.dir links
|
||
|
|
Now "cd sun4.dir" and you can do everything as if you had a complete
|
||
|
|
copy of the source. Just be careful if you are modifying a file, make
|
||
|
|
sure you turn any links into files:
|
||
|
|
mv file file.tmp ; cp file.tmp file ; rm file.tmp
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
2. Edit "conf/options.h" and turn on any options that you want. The
|
||
|
|
defaults are pretty reasonable for most installations.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
3. Edit "Makefile". Go to the section that describes your operating
|
||
|
|
system and uncoment it out. Add any other variables (for example,
|
||
|
|
I added a line "DISTHELP=/usr/local/lib".) If in doubt, use the
|
||
|
|
default!
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
4. "make" should build everything. Consider putting "./bin" in your
|
||
|
|
path if "make depend" fails and you think bin/mkdep will help you out.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|

|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The next step (#5) will burn down files which were supplied with
|
||
|
|
your operating system. You should run the suggested "-n" first
|
||
|
|
and make sure you have saved any files you want to save.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|

|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
5. "make install" will install everything. You might first do
|
||
|
|
"make -n install" to see what commands would be executed by "make install"
|
||
|
|
to make sure you understand where everything is about to be installed.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
6. (optional, SunOS 4.1.x/NetBSD-1.x/Solaris 2.x only): You can integrate
|
||
|
|
the new resolver (client-side) code into the shared libraries of your
|
||
|
|
operating system so that all dynamicly linked programs take advantage of
|
||
|
|
the new resolver. Read shres/<osname>/INSTALL to find out how to do it.
