Re: OT bind 4 -> 9 migration

[Anthony Schlemmer <aschlemm@comcast.net>]

I ran bind 4 as a caching, forwarding only service on an OpenBSD 3.1 
firewall it's not real difficult to migrate to bind 9 IMHO. I did this 
when I finally upgraded to 3.3. I found there were plenty of example 
configuration files included with bind 9 that helped guide my 
migration. Since you managed to configure bind 4 you shouldn't have 
that many problems getting bind 9 to work.
