 make install is fine.  By default it installs into /usr/local.
 
Thanks, that works in a fashion but as you point out installs to:
/usr/local/sbin/ - but if I don't want to rewrite the init.d scripts for
it I could use it being in /usr/sbin/

I appreciate I can move it all by hand, but I'm guessing I can change
where it installs to with 'make install' ? or do I need to do that when
I build it?

Strike that - found the answer (it's as clear as mud)
I think I'll just alter the init.d script for now and see if this
version fixes my issue



By default, `make install' will install all the files in
`/usr/local/bin', `/usr/local/lib' etc.  You can specify
an installation prefix other than `/usr/local' using `--prefix',
for instance `--prefix=$HOME'.

For better control, use the options below.

Fine tuning of the installation directories:
  --bindir=DIR   user executables [EPREFIX/bin]
  --sbindir=DIR  system admin executables [EPREFIX/sbin]
  --libexecdir=DIR   program executables [EPREFIX/libexec]
  --sysconfdir=DIR   read-only single-machine data [PREFIX/etc]
  --sharedstatedir=DIR   modifiable architecture-independent data
[PREFIX/com]
  --localstatedir=DIRmodifiable single-machine data [PREFIX/var]
  --libdir=DIR   object code libraries [EPREFIX/lib]
  --includedir=DIR   C header files [PREFIX/include]
  --oldincludedir=DIRC header files for non-gcc [/usr/include]
  --datarootdir=DIR  read-only arch.-independent data root
[PREFIX/share]
  --datadir=DIR  read-only architecture-independent data
[DATAROOTDIR]
  --infodir=DIR  info documentation [DATAROOTDIR/info]
  --localedir=DIRlocale-dependent data [DATAROOTDIR/locale]
  --mandir=DIR   man documentation [DATAROOTDIR/man]
  --docdir=DIR   documentation root [DATAROOTDIR/doc/PACKAGE]
  --htmldir=DIR  html documentation [DOCDIR]
  --dvidir=DIR   dvi documentation [DOCDIR]
  --pdfdir=DIR   pdf documentation [DOCDIR]
  --psdir=DIRps documentation [DOCDIR]

 You didn't mention what version of BIND you're running. I'm guessing
 that it's an older version from before the time when this bug was fixed.
 If you're not using an up to date version, upgrade to at least 9.6.1-P3
 and see if that solves your problems.
 
 
 hth,

Sorry:
;; ANSWER SECTION:
VERSION.BIND.   0   CH  TXT 9.5.0-P2.1

However, I have an older version on a secondary box 9.5.0-P2 which
does not suffer with the problem.

I'll look at upgrading, but this will require change management and the
headache that goes with it :-(

Installing 9.7?

2010-02-21 Thread Daniel Morgan
This may seem like a retarded question. Following advice to update I've
downloaded the 9.7 source and built it as per the readme:

 Did it get a response to the first query?  If not, the second one is 
 simply retrying because it timed out waiting for a response.
 
You know something, that had not crossed my mind. I can't think of any
easy way to check this - but looking though all the other logs on the
system - right down to the wan link, nothing is out of place.

Duplicating queries??

2010-02-19 Thread Daniel Morgan
I have a couple of BIND servers that I have inherited.  I'm getting some
upstream  complaints that one of them is issuing duplicate queries on
occasions - probably about a dozen times a day. When it happens, sure
