I already started the build world so at this point it may be too late. But I recall when I was using 4.10 to put stuff if like a make config file to prevent the system from upgrading BIND8 as I was using BIND9 at the time. Does anyone know what config file I am talking about so I know for future upgrades. What kind of stuff goes in there? I will read the man page if someone know what file I am talking about. Hard to answer a question when the guy(me) can't even ask it correctly.
