I'm using:
  Debian Sarge Jun 23  2004

I've installed all bind9 packages and still I have no information about
how to configure it.

I don't even have all the manpages.  I don't have and html docs (nor ps). 
I don't have an explination of the zone database formats.  No writeup on
named.conf fomrats.

What is going on?  Who can use bin9 without docs?

Infact I still have bind9.2 which I compiled and installed a while before
my sarge upgrade and it has pleanty of interesting material.

Thank you very much but please don't delete docs unless your just doing it
by mistake ;)

The strange thing is the bug report system logs several instance about
"revising" the documentation.

I don't care who or what is revising what: ISC bind shouldn't be partially
deleted by packagers for any reason.


Have Fun!
