Minimal distribution of BIND binaries

Hi again all,

We are about to distribute the BIND binaries to some 300+ servers some of
which are accross slow links.  These servers will be running as cache
servers only.

I want to reduce the distribution set to just necessary server files and
client files.  At the moment the file set I have:
./bin
nslookup
dig

./lib
libbind.a
libbind.r.a
nslookup.help

./sbin
named
ndc

This seems to work OK - any issues with only sending these files (+ config
files ...).

I was unable to work out what ./sbin/irpd was - still can't make the man
pages properly ;).

Cheers

James
