Caveats for moving bind from one server to another?

[dbotham at edeltacom.com]

Christopher,

I am assuming that the new name server will have the same IP address as the
old, if not, you have some additional issues to worry about....


Thanks,

Dave...

Hello -

Just wanted to get feedback from you all about this.

We are replacing an older name server with a new box.  We are
planning to: stop bind, tar up all the zone files, move them to the
new server, then start bind there. We will assign IP addresses
appropriately, and move the bind config files.

Most of the zones are static, but a few are dynamic.

Has anyone done this recently with 9.2.1? Any snafus that you
encountered?

Thanks in advance for the response.
