bind 8.2.2-p5 for solaris 8

[M.Ashcraft at epixtech.com]

As no one has responded with binaries.  I have binaries but I don't have
time to package them so you could install it.

So, Here is the quick and dirty how to compile on a fresh install of
Solaris 8 from my notes.

Note if you didn't do an "Entire Distribution" install of Solaris you will
need to install the C libraries from the Solaris Install CD.

Solaris 8 comes with a cd labeled "Solaris 8 Software companion".

log into CDE as root

Insert this CD in the drive and the install should automatically start.  If
it does not, run /cdrom/cdrom0/install

An install  window will pop up on the console.  If you don't see it after
the CD has been in for a minute, go back and type the command above in a
shell window.

Click- Next;Next,Custom, Next
Select default install for the 3 "Development/*" packages "Languages,
Libraries, Tools"
Select no install for everything else.

Click Next, Install Now, Check the License box, Click Next.

It will install the software (Takes a few minutes)

Click Next; Exit

Download the Bind 8.2.2-P5 source in binary mode from ISC
http://www.isc.org
It us currently at:
ftp://ftp.isc.org/isc/bind/src/8.2.2-P5/bind-src.tar.gz

At the shell, change to the directory where you saved the ISC source and
type the following commands:

# PATH=$PATH:/usr/ccs/bin:/opt/sfw/bin
# gunzip bind-src.tar.gz
# tar -xvf bind-src.tar
# cd src
# make
# make install

That should do it.  From there read the docs.  They are available at
ftp://ftp.isc.org/isc/bind/src/8.2.2-P5/bind-doc.tar.gz
They need to be uncompressed and extracted the same way the source code
was.

If you run into problems from there, check the ISC website and/or post to
this list.
