Migrating from Previous Versions of BIND
The following sections describe how to migrate from previous versions of BIND to
BIND 9.2.0.
From BIND 4.9.7 to BIND 9.2.0
A shell script, “named-bootconf.sh” is provided with BIND 9.2.0 in the
/usr/bin directory to convert the BIND 4.9.7 configuration file to BIND
9.2.0-compliant configuration file.
The following steps describe how to convert the existing /etc/named.boot file
to the BIND 9.2.0-compliant /etc/named.conf configuration file:
1. Execute /usr/bin/named-bootconf.sh with the existing /etc/named.boot
file as input and redirect the output to /etc/named.conf.
# /usr/bin/named-bootconf.sh < /etc/named.boot > /etc/name
d.conf
A shell script "change2v9db.sh" is provided with BIND 9.2.0 in the /usr/bin
directory to convert the existing db files to BIND 9.2.0-compliant db files.
The following steps describe how to convert the BIND 4.9.7 db files to
BINDv9.1.3-compliant db files:
1. cd to the directory where the db files exist.
2. Execute the script as specified below with all the db files as arguments.
# /usr/bin/change2v9db.sh dbfile1 dbfile2 ...
After successful execution, all existing db files will be converted to BIND
9.2.0-compliant db files.
