Description Jason Roysdon 2010-03-04 20:50:04 UTC
Description of problem:
BIND 9.3 shipping with EL5 doesn't support NSEC3 and a number of other needed features.  As EL5 will be around for some time in production, and EL6 is still forthcoming, BIND9.6 is needed for NSEC3 support.  Specifically in the .GOV gTLD and others.

A tech preview of BIND 9.6 is requested for EL5.

Comment 1 Adam Tkac 2010-03-05 09:44:31 UTC
BIND 9.7 has been already released so I prefer to use it instead of older 9.6.

Comment 2 Jason Roysdon 2010-03-05 19:09:15 UTC
Wonderful.  Does another bug request need to be opened, or can this just be modified to ask for a tech preview of BIND 9.7?

Comment 3 Jeff Lightner 2010-04-02 12:57:50 UTC
Just adding another vote that this be done soon.   Is there a way to increase the priority?

You can open a ticket in the issue tracker. I think this is only one possible way how to increase the priority of this request.

Comment 5 Ondrej Vasik 2010-04-02 13:26:19 UTC
Best way to increase the priority is to contact product support directly - as bugzilla is not support tool. Please inform them there is already existing bugzilla which requests that.
Other way is to handle it via EPEL - this extra packages for rhel channel is maintained primarily by community and many things (e.g. git) for RHEL-5 are available there. There is no support for it - though.

Comment 6 Adam Tkac 2010-06-01 14:44:50 UTC
I created RHEL 5.6 test package of BIND 9.7.0-P2, it is located on http://people.redhat.com/atkac/bind/5.6-test/. Note this is not an official package, yet. You will also hit problems with SELinux so you have to run this package in permissive mode.

Comment 32 Martin Cermak 2010-09-15 10:00:09 UTC
=> VERIFIED

Comment 33 Florian Nadge 2010-10-18 15:55:33 UTC
    Technical note added. If any revisions are required, please edit the "Technical Notes" field
