I downloaded gcc from http://smc.vnet.net/, BIND 8.2 from
http://www.isc.org and built it in about 15 minutes on 2.6. Solaris 7
should not be significantly different. The longest and most complicated
bit was ordering the latest version of the cricket book ("DNS & BIND",
O'Reilly (http://www.ora.com), Third Edition.)
