While it certainly might make sense to drop BIND out of the base, I'm not sure dropping bind tools as well from it is the best decision. How hard it will be to continue maintaining bind tools inside the base (so the=20 critical ones like dig and nslookup still will be available), while moving the rest of it (the server itself and supporting tools) to the port? --=20 Stanislav Sedov ST4096-RIPE --Signature=_Thu__1_Apr_2010_22_24_04_-0700_JeELB8c2KyR9N.sP Content-Type: application/pgp-signature -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iQIcBAEBAgAGBQJLtX95AAoJEL8lojEJL9nwbJgQALOXVTF3xaj0lDVAsXtgFSWJ nYYts36/Msoe9AE8lTWoFnXsXfkLPaaqkcLOu7mGwBOIbbJ7ZfSY/KgTiUdEuha+ dXglF6dWmPfVO+ROZNtwE3MgCKdWR4o8/X/iAfyTKEf7L1exoRHdObLBUXQuYtmn 5mzORU84C6PkAyuJ6NIAs2A56yCmQv7L5fd3shDErkj5yMmF43dobnXBIeFPg8h2 Jo61HA6EhnZ4fvxcgPe9pkEAk2k2XQQYwY+aXVXGLHzuBI1P2WSFG48eB1eNG8cp 6rWMSirJrhKG7PzHSzVgUZ0PDWfQl9syRCJupNyAXHmP+f3dFguecvCmDADtnn3W js79ZkftYSHo++okUC1nXImh4ow8Z0RZ5xYAl4NYbgkAq7Pe3rMr5UADD/GwTM5w O/QRPRU4cPjBMAAANPyZXXSliuIk21CDbSL1Li/jI44Z+PJK/qSCGQxvZRsjgEnC C6HC4/dXT90NzHkNYUATlD9JjqCP92B89qikBA7nbbiq4uhcTUuvOMTcI8apAhj6 xT/Rr14BzCXTj1Ojr2HA4aCYc1PNdH4nVWDogiy9yIfopwEtTcUnz76UJRZXq8RA 2pWekU5uHjtk6IDfxfGXnDTM1HPKDk3mmiZU3nmojEnuG/0lvPHZ6suzEIE3X6fa 6A4HEP9NuTKm+ckCl+rj =J0FH -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --Signature=_Thu__1_Apr_2010_22_24_04_-0700_JeELB8c2KyR9N.sP--
