upgrade to bind 9.3.0 for FC3?
Last modified: 2007-11-30 17:10:50 EST
The ISC released both bind 9.2.4 and bind 9.3.0 on 2004-09-23. Bind 9.2.4 is in the FC development tree; bind 9.3.0 is not. If it's too late to consider putting bind 9.3.0 in FC3, could we at least have it in the development tree? I think as much advance exposure to bind 9.3.0 as possible would be a Good Thing.
Totally agreed. Please consider upgrading to 9.3.0 before FC3. It's the only version which implements the future DNSSEC specs and has the ability to bind to a specific IPv6 interface.
BIND 9.2.4 (final version) will be in Fedora Core Test 3 (FC3t3) and Enterprise Linux 4 Beta 2 (RHEL-4-B2). As soon as these projects have both frozen (around Oct 13th) I will submit bind-9.3.0 to the FC3 development tree. There is not sufficient time for full testing of 9.3.0 for our GA releases. Meanwhile, I will work on getting a "beta-test" BIND-9.3.0 RPM done today, which will be available at : http://people.redhat.com/~jvdias/bind/9.3.0
OK, great. Will test 9.3.0 RPMs here on my name servers.
This is now done. You can download bind-9.3.0-1_beta from : http://people.redhat.com/~jvdias/bind/9.3.0 The srpm is at: http://people.redhat.com/~jvdias/bind/9.3.0/bind-9.3.0-1_beta.src.rpm I have built the binary packages for the i386 platform which are here: http://people.redhat.com/~jvdias/bind/9.3.0/i386 These were built under the latest rawhide release of today(20040827). If you need the packages for a different platform, download the srpm and build it with: rpmbuild --rebuild bind-9.3.0-1_beta.src.rpm Then install the resulting rpms which will be in /usr/src/redhat/RPMS/i386.
When comparing 9.2.3-5 Fedora RPMs to your 9.3.0 beta, two utils are missing in the "bind" subpackage: -/usr/sbin/dnssec-makekeyset -/usr/sbin/dnssec-signkey -/usr/share/man/man8/dnssec-makekeyset.8.gz -/usr/share/man/man8/dnssec-signkey.8.gz Also, bind-utils doesn't contain the resolver.5 manpage anymore, I guess this is now where it belongs (glibc)? Now on to some production server tests... Best regards, Daniel

Thanks for the link to the beta rpm! This will work for me until RHEL-4 is released.
Could bind 9.3.0 pushed to Fedora Development, please?
Ping? Rawhide?
The production server tests on two nameservers here went fine, no problems whatsoever, running dual-stack IPv4/IPv6 for two months now. FWIW...
bind-9.3.0-1 is now in FC4 / Rawhide, and is available for FC2 and FC3 by download from: http://people.redhat.com/~jvdias/bind/9.3.0
Confirmed that bind 9.3.0 is in FC development; closing.
