</pre>
<p>Verify the repo is enabled:
</p>
<pre># pkg publisher
PUBLISHER TYPE STATUS URI
omnios origin online <a href="http://pkg.omniti.com/omnios/release/">http://pkg.omniti.com/omnios/release/</a>
uulm.mawi origin online <a href="http://scott.mathematik.uni-ulm.de/release/">http://scott.mathematik.uni-ulm.de/release/</a>
</pre>
<p>Then we can install it with:
</p>
<pre># pkg install service/network/dns/bind
</pre>
<p>This will install bind but it is not enabled by default. Fortunately this is very easy. First find the service name:
</p>
<pre># svcs -a | grep dns
disabled 13:21:43 svc:/network/dns/install:default
disabled 13:21:43 svc:/network/dns/client:default
disabled 13:21:45 svc:/network/dns/multicast:default
disabled 14:29:16 svc:/network/dns/server:default
</pre>
<p>The last one looks like the right one, so we enable it with
</p>
<pre># svcadm enable dns/server
# svcs -a | grep dns
disabled 13:21:43 svc:/network/dns/install:default
disabled 13:21:43 svc:/network/dns/client:default
disabled 13:21:45 svc:/network/dns/multicast:default
online 14:30:50 svc:/network/dns/server:default
</pre>
<p>This bind package has a file /etc/named.conf.sample, so we copy
that to /etc/named.conf and modify it to your liking. For a caching
server the only change you probably need to do is adapt the
allow-recursion parameter to match your network</p><pre># svcadm disable dns/server
# svcadm enable dns/server
</pre>Hope this helps.<br><br></div><div class="gmail_extra">Regards,<br></div><div class="gmail_extra">-- <br></div><div class="gmail_extra">Natxo<br></div></div>
