Migrating from BIND 4.9.x to BIND 8.1.2 errors

I am trying to upgrade to BIND 8.1.2 by converting an existing /etc/named.boot file as input and redirecting the output to /etc/named./conf. I used the command /usr/bin/named-bootconf.pl named.boot > named.conf. Also, before doing this command I added the three lines check-names primary ignore, check-names secondary ignore, and check-names response ignore to the named.boot file. After redirecting the output and looking at named.conf it has // NOTE: uncoverted directive ' /primary ignore', // NOTE: uncoverted directive ' /secondary ignore', // NOTE: uncoverted directive ' /response ignore', and // NOTE: uncoverted directive ' ignore'. Is this correct? I still have reject errors with the _ in system and printer names, when I start named. Thank you for your help!

Re: Migrating from BIND 4.9.x to BIND 8.1.2 errors

It might be that the .pl script does not know about these options.

In bind8 you would write:


options {
check-names master ignore ;
check-names slave ignore ;
check-names response ignore;
};

Hope this helps
