solaris 10 bundled software

i have read something about this:

Bundled Software

Unlike previous releases of Solaris where Sun provided a Companion CD with various tools, Solaris 10 (if a Full Distribution installation is done) comes with 185 packages, 30 of them directly supported by Sun:

Apache http server versions 1.3.33 and 2.0.52

BIND version 9.2

flex version 2.5.4

GNU GCC version 3.4.3

GNU make version 3.80

Internet Printing Protocol (IPP) support and modules for Apache

MySQL database version 4.0.15

Samba version 3.0.4

does that mean i do not need to install bind anymore since it is bundled? sorry just new to solaris OS.. thanks to those who will post reply...

Hi,I think that list is correct. However, that files seems to be old versions or at least there are newest versions. sunfreeware.com have a list more actualized for all packages.

By default these files never exist:/etc/named.conf -- you have to create it./var/named- you have to create the directory and files within/var/named/........... configuration files for bind, it磗 your own task.Regards.

thanks chupito... i decided to install a new version of bind which is bind 9.4.1 and i got errors below upon executing ./configure

> checking for a BSD compatible install... ./install-sh -c

> checking for ar... no

> configure: error:

> ar program not found. Please fix your PATH to include the directory in

> which ar resides, or set AR in the environment with the full path to ar.

then i search..

find / -name ar -print and it gives me 6 folders where ar is... where should i put this ar file in order for me to install the bind 9.4.1 successfully...

thanks in advance... my email is leo.sarmiento@digitelone.com i hopeyou dont mind... thanks

I guess you want to install BIND 9.4.1:

(I don磘 know if you are using Solaris X86 or SPARC, I give you an example with SPARC)

1. Download bind-9.4.1-sol10-sparc-local.gz from www.sunfreeware.com

2. Take a look for dependencies: (Dependencies: openssl-0.9.8e and either gcc-3.4.6 or libgcc-3.4.6 or higher to obtain the /usr/local/lib/libgcc_s.so.1 library.)

3. local.gz FILES ARE installed by doing:

3.1. # tar -xvf bind-9.4.1-sol10-sparc-local.gz

3.2. # pkgadd -d bind-9.4.1-sol10-sparc-local

... You have to install dependencies before this BIND like 3.1 and 3.2

you don磘 need to compile anything!!

good luck

regards
