I'm trying to set up my newly-installed RedHat 5.1 box as a DNS server 
and am trying to use rpm to install from the RedHat CDROM.

First of all, the RPMS directory lists two bind packages (actually three, 
if you include the utilities package), bind 4.9.7-1.i386.rpm, and 
ypbind-3.3.7.i386.rpm. When I try to install the bind package, I get a 
"can't install this package" message. When I look at available packages 
through the GLINT utility, I see only the ypbind package.

Assuming these are the right packages, should I just go ahead and install 
the ypbind package through GLINT? If not, are there later versions?

The name service HOW-TO refers to BIND-4.9.3, so I would have thought 
that bind 4.9.7-1 is what I needed.
