The problem is that those old BIND 8 commands are still in /usr/bin and /usr/sbin, and since those two directories come before their /usr/local counterparts, when you type "nslookup" (or whatever), you'll get the BIND 8 version instead of the BIND 9 version. Sure I could go rename all of those BIND 8 versions and do something like put ".8" at the end of them or something. But I'd rather just get rid of BIND 8.
