At a guess is the old version in /sbin/, check the startup
script is pointing to /usr/local/sbin, or rename the old version
"named.old", and put a hard/symbolic link in to
/usr/local/sbin/named
Did the package get the manual pages in the right place? My
guess is it is a third party package built with default
locations rather than SUN's for everything?
What was wrong with BIND 9.2.1 BTW?
Oh and that is "dig @127.0.0.1 version.bind chaos txt" time to
lose your nslookup habit before it is too late ;)
