Current O/S version = FreeBSD 4.10-RELEASE Current Bind version = named 8.3.7-REL
Does anyone know if upgrading Bind/named 8.3.7 to 9.3 is recommended within 4.10-RELEASE?
Recommended? It's more a personal preference thing, isn't it?
If so can this be accomplished using the
portupgrade command
No. Portupgrade will upgrade 8.3 to 8.4.
or should a different method be used like downloading
No. Use the ports. Make backups of your .conf and .zone files. Then go to /usr/ports/dns/bind8/ and make deinstall. Then go to /usr/ports/dns/bind9/ and make install clean. Then read the pkg-message and follow the instructions in it. You'll have to enable bind in rc.conf. Make sure you *read* the instructions.bind9.tar.gz file and running make install?
