I'm running FreeBSD 4.2-RELEASE, and up until now I've been running bind 8.2.3-T6B. I've just installed 8.2.3-REL (not having realised up until recently that T6B is a beta release, and the security advisory for released in Jan preceded my setting up of the box). The system install (T6B) of named is in /usr/sbin/, while the ports install (REL) is in /usr/local/sbin. It took a little while but I finally figured out I need to run /usr/local/sbin/ndc instead of ndc (/usr/sbin/ndc is found first in the path, what's the best way to change this? I don't want to change the order of PATH) My question is this: the system bind installation looks for named.conf in /etc/namedb. The ports installation looks for /etc/named.conf. What's the 'right' way of changing this? Create a softlink from /etc/named.conf to /etc/namedb/named.conf (like /etc/aliases)? Sorry if this is obvious :) James Greenfield To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
