Bind 9.2.x with HPUX 11.11

[Ihab Khoury]

I saw that HPUX has a depot for bind 9.2.0

I am looking for the source code that will compile on version 11.11. since I need to add more features before compiling. Does anyone know where I can find source code?

Thanks

Ihab,

You can download the source directly from ISCs ftp site:

ftp://ftp.isc.org/isc/bind9/9.2.1/bind-9.2.1.tar.gz

or if you want/need 9.2.0:

ftp://ftp.isc.org/isc/bind9/9.2.0/bind-9.2.0.tar.gz

Hope that helps.

-Mike

Well, if you are developing based on BIND, you should probably join the bind-workers mailing list. Recently on that list there was an announcement of 9.2.2rc1 (iirc) and in the changes list, was discussion of changes for walking interface lists in HP-UX 11.11.

I believe that this is the port of the changes made to 8.3.3 for 11i.

So, grab a copy of 9.2.2rc1 and either use that as your source base, or take the diffs to find what you will need to aplpy to an earlier BIND 9 for compilation on 11i (11.11, 11.22, etc...)

hth

(or just compile on 11.0 and run the binary on 11i...)

Thank you for the reply, the source code from isc.org will not compile on HPUX11.11
it will only compile on HPUX 11.X where X < 11
Unfortunately I do not have a choice but to have Bind 9.2.x and HPUX 11.11.

"HP-UX 11.11 is not yet supported due to its incompatible SIOCGLIFCONF ioctl. "

But since I saw a depot I realized HP must have came with a fix.

Thanks
