The official version of BIND is now 8.1.1. This is 4.9.6, the last of 4.*
|
|
which we are releasing since it has some important security bugs fixed.
|
|
|
|
The official place to get BIND is <URL:ftp://ftp.isc.org/isc/bind/src>.
|
|
|
|
The official mailing lists are: bind-users@vix.com - users/admins
|
|
(use *-request@* for admin mail) bind-workers@vix.com - developers
|
|
|
|
The official Usenet newsgroups are: comp.protocols.tcp-ip.domains
|
|
comp.protocols.dns.bind
|
|
comp.protocols.dns.ops
|
|
comp.protocols.dns.std
|
|
|
|
BIND is currently maintained by: The Internet Software Consortium
|
|
(see <URL:http://www.isc.org/isc>.)

Read the top of CHANGES for interesting stuff.
|
|
|
|
To build this: QUICK
|
|
|
|
(on SUNOS, use the BSD build environment or you will
|
|
get the wrong definition for O_NDELAY)
|
|
|
|
look at conf/options.h and edit to your tastes.
|
|
The OPTIONS file here in this directory will help you
|
|
figure out what to do.
|
|
|
|
You should also look at the Makefile to select the proper set
|
|
of definitions depending on whether you are using Ultrix,
|
|
SunOS, and other 4.[23] BSD-alikes or using BSD 4.4, BSD/386,
|
|
and other net2-alikes.
|
|
|
|
"make links" will build a shadow source tree full
|
|
of symbolic links. the default name of this tree
|
|
is "./native.b", but you can override it by setting
|
|
the DST variable on the "make" command line, as in:
|
|
make DST=vax.b SRC=..
|
|
if your DST is not a subdir of "here", you will need to
|
|
override the SRC variable's default (which is ".."),
|
|
as in:
|
|
make DST=/tmp/vax.b SRC=`pwd`
|
|
note that the DST directory must be nonexistent at
|
|
the time that you run "make links".
|
|
|
|
after "make links", you can cd to the new build
|
|
directory, check the settings in the Makefile, and
|
|
run "make depend". if you aren't using "make links"
|
|
(shame on you), just use "make depend" from "here".
|
|
"make depend" may fail on your system; if so, look in
|
|
the bin/ directory and find a mkdep that does in fact
|
|
work for you.
|
|
|
|
if you skip the "make depend" phase, or after you run it,
|
|
you can do "make all" (from the build directory if you
|
|
used "make links" or from "here" if you're just hacking
|
|
around). you will get the following new things out of it:
|
|
res/libresolv.a
|
|
compat/lib/lib44bsd.a (optional)
|
|
include/{netdb,resolv}.h
|
|
include/arpa/{inet,nameser}.h
|
|
compat/include/sys/{cdefs,bitypes}.h
|
|
tools/{nstest,nsquery,dig,host}
|
|
tools/nslookup/nslookup
|
|
named/named
|
|
named/named-xfer
|
|
if you have trouble with "make all", check conf/portability.h
|
|
for things that your system needs, or doesn't need, or whatever.
|
|
it is preferable to add #ifdef's to conf/portability.h than to
|
|
add them anywhere else.
|
|
|
|
from the build directory (or "here" if you didn't
|
|
use "make links"), you can try "make -n install"
|
|
which will tell you what will be installed. it might
|
|
actually be right; however, what you will probably have to
|
|
do is copy the above files into the places you want
|
|
run them from. the other files you will need are:
|
|
tools/nslookup/nslookup.help
|
|
named/named.restart
|
|
named/named.reload
|
|
|
|
resolver library notes: to install it, either put the .a
|
|
file into /usr/local/lib or /usr/lib (if you use -lresolv
|
|
on all the links of your networking software), or use "ar"
|
|
to put all res/*.o directly into your /lib/libc.a file.
|
|
either way you will want to copy the include files
|
|
(including those from compat/include/sys) over to
|
|
/usr/include (or /usr/local/include if you're willing to
|
|
use -I/usr/local/include on all your network-software
|
|
compiles). something like this:
|
|
cp res/libresolv.a /usr/lib; ranlib /usr/lib/libresolv.a
|
|
tar chf - include | (cd /usr/include; tar xvpf -)
|
|
cp compat/include/sys/*.h /usr/include/sys
|
|
|
|
installing the man pages is left as an exercise for the
|
|
reader. there are just too many different versions of
|
|
"man" floating around for me to be able to help you figure
|
|
out what to do for the one you happen to be using.
|
|
|
|
WARNING: If you were running a BIND 4.8.3 or earlier based
|
|
named you should remove all cache files prior to starting
|
|
named. It would generally be a good idea to remove all cache
|
|
files regardless when installing a new version. The creadability
|
|
code depends upon the cache files having been made with the
|
|
latest named-xfer for correct operation.

Sun compiler v2.0.1 hates bind4.9 code.
|
|
|
|
Sun has 3 compilers:
|
|
|
|
/usr/ucb/cc -- the default for SunOS 4.1.[123],
|
|
dropped in Solaris 2.0.
|
|
/usr/lang/cc -- the "unbundled" cc v1.0
|
|
(pretty good, but expensive), only
|
|
generates code for SunOS 4.1.x.
|
|
/usr/lang/cc.2.0.1 -- the latest "unbundled" cc,
|
|
for when they stop shipping the
|
|
bundled version altogether. This
|
|
generates code for SunOS 4.1.x and Solaris 2.x.
|
|
|
|
Sun's 2.0.1 C compiler (the one with the floating licenses) for SunOS
|
|
4.1.x outputs a HUGE number of warnings. They can be ignored.
|
|
|
|
--------------------- (4.8.3 README -- mostly obsolete now)
|
|
|
|
This directory contains all the info and sources
|
|
for the Berkeley Internet Name Domain server.
|
|
You should read and understand these directions before starting
|
|
to install the libraries and nameserver. Some of these steps
|
|
replace existing source and binary files; you should make backups
|
|
of all existing files before you begin this installation.
|
|
Two installation procedures are described. The first is for 4.3BSD
|
|
and other similar systems that are already configured to use earlier
|
|
versions of the nameserver, and which have the new version of <netdb.h>
|
|
(containing a h_addr_list field in the hostent structure). The second
|
|
procedure is for 4.2BSD and derived systems. This procedure requires
|
|
more decisions to be made, and may have to be varied due to system
|
|
or operation constraints.
|
|
|
|
The subdirectories and their contents are:
|
|
|
|
bin - shell scripts used by current Berkeley makefiles
|
|
man - manual pages & documentation
|
|
doc - copy of Bind Operations Guide, and other documents
|
|
include - include files to go in /usr/include
|
|
named - name server sources
|
|
res - source for C library resolver routines (and other libc additions)
|
|
(may be used as separate library, resolv.a)
|
|
conf/master - Sample data files
|
|
tools - some test programs
|
|
|
|
|
|
Here is how to install the name server on 4.3BSD:
|
|
|
|
0) cp bin/mkdep.append /usr/ucb/mkdep
|
|
cp bin/manroff /usr/man/manroff
|
|
1) cp include/arpa/nameser.h /usr/include/arpa
|
|
2) cp include/*.h /usr/include
|
|
3) cp man/*.1 /usr/man/manl
|
|
cp man/*.3 /usr/man/man3
|
|
cp man/*.5 /usr/man/man5
|
|
cp man/*.7 /usr/man/man7
|
|
cp man/*.8 /usr/man/man8
|
|
4) NOTE: Don't install the Makefiles on 4.3 Tahoe Release
|
|
cp res/{res*.c,herror.c} /usr/src/lib/libc/net
|
|
cp res/Makefile.libc.net /usr/src/lib/libc/net/Makefile
|
|
cp res/strcasecmp.c /usr/src/lib/libc/gen
|
|
cp res/strpbrk.c /usr/src/lib/libc/compat-sys5
|
|
cp res/named/{*.c,Makefile} /usr/src/lib/libc/net/named
|
|
5) add strcasecmp.[co] to the Makefile in /usr/src/lib/libc/gen
|
|
6) add strpbrk.[co] to the Makefile in /usr/src/lib/libc/compat-sys5
|
|
7) rebuild and install /lib/libc.a.
|
|
8) edit named/pathnames.h to correpond with your system's configuration
|
|
9) cd named; make depend; make all; make install
|
|
10) cd tools/nslookup; make nslookup; make install
|
|
11) create the master files (samples in conf/master/*)
|
|
12) edit /etc/rc.local to include:
|
|
|
|
if [ -f /etc/named ]; then
|
|
/etc/named; echo -n ' named' >/dev/console
|
|
fi
|
|
|
|
13) recompile network client and server programs that use gethostbyname, etc.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Here is how to install the name server on 4.2BSD or similar systems.
|
|
First, a few notes on the choices that must be made.
|
|
|
|
Rather than building libresolv.a, you may wish to integrate the resolver
|
|
routines into /lib/libc.a. This is recommended to make it easy to recompile
|
|
network programs once named is running. This procedure may require hand-
|
|
tayloring on some systems.
|
|
|
|
You will have to choose a version of mkdep from the bin directory
|
|
that will work on your system:
|
|
If you've modified make(1) to use .depend files as described
|
|
in the current sendmail distribution, use mkdep; otherwise,
|
|
if you have the 4.3BSD cc -M option, use mkdep.append; on ultrix,
|
|
use mkdep.ultrix (uses cc -Em); otherwise, use mkdep.old.compiler.
|
|
The mkdep script is used by "make depend" to regenerate Makefile dependency
|
|
lists.
|
|
|
|
You will need to chose a version of netdb.h. First, check /usr/include/netdb.h
|
|
on your system. If the hostent structure has a h_addr_list entry, you can
|
|
probably use your existing netdb.h or the one in include/netdb.h.
|
|
If the existing netdb.h in /usr/include does not have a h_addr_list field,
|
|
you will have to decide whether to update to the 4.3BSD format of the hostent
|
|
structure. This is the best approach, but cannot be used unless you plan
|
|
to upgrade entirely: if you use the new structure in /usr/include/resolv.h,
|
|
you must recompile everything that uses the hostent structure, including
|
|
the rest of the C library and all networking programs, without using
|
|
any pre-existing object files. If this isn't possible or desirable,
|
|
and /usr/include/netdb.h doesn't have an h_addr_list line, use
|
|
include/netdb.h.4.2 instead of netdb.h. The other version of netdb.h
|
|
(include/netdb.h.4.2.compat) may be used instead of include/netdb.h.4.2.
|
|
This version along with a change in res/named/gethostnamadr.c.compat
|
|
provide for using the new format of the hostent structure while having
|
|
binary compatibility with existing libraries.
|
|
|
|
On systems with Sun RPC, you will have to merge include/netdb.h or
|
|
include/netdb.h.4.2 with /usr/include/netdb.h; copy the rpc-related lines
|
|
into the appropriate copy of netdb.h. Alternatively, use an alternate
|
|
include path when compiling the resolver library and programs that use it.
|
|
|
|
0) cp bin/{whatever} /usr/ucb/mkdep (see above)
|
|
cp bin/manroff /usr/man/manroff
|
|
1) cp include/arpa/nameser.h /usr/include/arpa
|
|
Also, on ultrix 2.x, if you haven't fixed
|
|
the inet_addr definition in inet.h, do
|
|
cp include/arpa/inet.h /usr/include/arpa
|
|
2) cp include/resolv.h /usr/include
|
|
3) cp include/netdb.h /usr/include/netdb.h
|
|
OR
|
|
cp include/netdb.h.4.2 /usr/include/netdb.h
|
|
OR
|
|
edit /usr/include/netdb.h
|
|
4) cp man/*.1 /usr/man/manl
|
|
cp man/*.3 /usr/man/man3
|
|
cp man/*.5 /usr/man/man5
|
|
cp man/*.7 /usr/man/man7
|
|
cp man/*.8 /usr/man/man8
|
|
5) cd res; make depend;
|
|
make libresolv.a;
|
|
make install
|
|
OR
|
|
update the libc sources as in the 4.3BSD instructions above
|
|
and use res/Makefile as a guide for integration
|
|
and omit the RES=-lresolv in the next two steps
|
|
OR
|
|
compile the .o files in res according to Makefile,
|
|
then use place those object files in /lib/libc.a (keeping a backup!)
|
|
and omit the RES=-lresolv in the next two steps
|
|
6) edit named/pathnames.h to correpond with your system's configuration
|
|
7) cd named; make depend; make RES=-lresolv all; make install
|
|
(if your system defines signal-catching routines to return int
|
|
instead of void, use "make DEFINES=-DSIG_FN=int RES=-lresolv all")
|
|
8) edit tools/nslookup/pathnames.h to correpond with your system's
|
|
configuration
|
|
9) cd tools/nslookup; make RES=-lresolv nslookup install
|
|
10) create the master files (samples in conf/master/*)
|
|
11) edit /etc/rc.local to include:
|
|
|
|
if [ -f /etc/named ]; then
|
|
/etc/named; echo -n ' named' >/dev/console
|
|
fi
|
|
|
|
12) eventually, recompile network client and server programs that use
|
|
gethostbyname, etc.
