Hi Jim,
my name servers ns1, ns2, ns3 and ns4 (Alpha DEC's machines) are running
bind 4.9.7. I'm in the process to upgrade them to Bind8.2.3 but I have not
have any luck. I have
set up bind 8 before with no problems in another environment.
The two new servers are Netra X1 running Solaris 8. I have compiled
bind8.2.3 with no errors. Even my logs said that the server is ready to
answer queries. I'm in a lost right now...
Thank you for your time.
