Build with GEOIP

[Pushkar Pradhan]

Sounds to me like it is looking for the header file which is in bin/named/include/named. 
Can you try setting up your GeoIP so that everything is under the same directory?

 I'm trying to configure the GEOIP option in to our bind build. I have the free 
GeoIP databases for initial testing. Can anyone point me to a walkthrough or 
give me the required steps. I've read the stuff I can find on ISC and it talks 
about using the --with-geoip config option and states:

"BIND 9.10's GeoIP features work by allowing you to create ACL elements that 
evaluate based on the location information for the client's IP address.  This 
uses the API provided by MaxMindR to query their GeoIP database but should 
work with any database in a compatible format."

This makes it sound to me like the API for maxmind is built in to the bind 
code. What I get when trying to build out the bind "--with-geoip"

Configure: error: GeoIP path not found


so I tried to use " --with-geoip=/var/named/GeoIP"

Path does not exist



Used "--with-geoip=/var/named/chroot/var/named/GeoIP" (created the directory 
and put the databases here.)
Now I get

checking GeoIP.h usability... no
checking GeoIP.h presence... no
checking forGeoIP.h... no
configure: error GeoIP header file not found

the build directory for this release has geoip.h in bin/named/include/named

I'm obviously missing some things.
