Hi all,

I'm about to configure a caching only nameserver for my dialup box, and I 
noticed that there are two variants of the bind package available, bind 
and bind9.  I know that the bind package is version 8.x

Which version should I use?

Is there an advantage or disadvantage to the newer version?

Is configuration for bind-9 so different that I should stick with bind-8?

Thanks, I look forward to any advice offered.
