Release 8.2.2-P5 comes native with Tru64 UNIX release 5.1
But even after applying patch kit 003 I still see the following version
string.
#/sbin/named -v
named 8.2.2-P5
Another more knowledable poster was able to generate the following
version string.
# /sbin/named -v
named 8.2.2-P5-plus-CA-2000-20-plus-CA-2001-02
I went looking for the latest BIND patch. Below you will see what I
found.
My next question is do I still need to apply this patch?
I thought the jumbo patch kit-003 fixed just about every thing!
I've got a call logged on this #C010821-3353.
I want to hear what they have to recomend about the patch before I
summarize.
Sincerely
Kevin Criss
