Appendix C. Compiling and Installing BIND on Linux

The versions of BIND shipped with most versions of Linux are fairly recent—usually BIND 8.2.2 for the most recent Linux releases. Still, BIND 8.2.3 is the most current BIND release, and the ISC recommends that you upgrade to BIND 9. For those of you who can't wait until your version of Linux updates to BIND 8.2.3 or 9.1.0, this appendix will show you how to do it yourself.
