Hi Wolrd,
I'm trying to start with DNS, I'm looking for some help with it, becase I know that there is an error in my new RedHat 8 install; it is between my Keyboar and my chair.

How may ask my system which Bind ver. it's?
I'm looking for some example to follow.

Thanks in advance!

doesn't the RPM database have the version in it ? - or I'm sure the Red Hat Web Site has that information.

i think it is is rpm -q (or something like that).

man rpm

The easiest way to tell the version number is to look for the message that named puts in the system log file on startup.

For example:
May 14 12:54:21 ns named[15677]: starting. named 8.2.2-P5
May 14 12:54:21 hostmaster@ns1.domain.com:/usr/sbin/named

Redhat 8 ships with 9.2.1

Well I guess that depends on what you mean "config it as ver 8.x"
