Hi

Sorry for the misunderstanding

I was not looking for support, I was just asking from people, who have
been in the same situation that I am in now

What influenced their decision to choose what ever they chose to go with

There is  migration note(s) in the bind-9 distribution kit. Download and
read this.

Most stuff is about rfc-conformance, bind-4 might accept things that is
against standards that bind-9 will complain about. It's no argument=3D20
against bind-9 , it's an argument for correcting faulty configs.

Why don't you download buikl and start up on a testmachine until you
feel familiar with the software.
