Hiding BIND version in named.conf

[Thomaschewski, Holger (LDS)]

Hi folks!

my problem is to hide the version of bind on my dns server.
Under RedHat8.0 and Bind 9.2.1 it's no problem. I put the option:

           version "anything else";=20

into my /etc/named.conf and it's OK.
On my second NS there runs Bind 8.1.2 under HP-UX 11.1 and=20
the NAMED says by starting:

         syntax error near 'version' =20

in my /var/log/messages.
Where's the problem??

Sincerely=20
Holger
