The Bind update for EL4 was just announced, packages that fix the issues ( see https://rhn.redhat.com/errata/RHSA-2009-1179.html ) are available for C4 at
http://dev.centos.org/~z00dax/c4-bind/
we dont normally release updates till the packages used for the build are also available, however since this is a major issue - it would be nice to get these updates out right away.
Keeping that in mind could someone test for :
a) install these packages, make sure they work for the basic stuff
b) update an existing bind install on C4 and make sure it does not break anything
c) ensure that the deps for the actual binaries are met cleanly within the existing CentOS-4 os + updates set.
As soon as we can get reasonable testing feedback here, we can push these packages into the released updates pool.
Thanks

Thanks David, I've moved 2 of my own C4 machines over to these packages as well and not had any issues - as in they continue to do what they should be doing.
If we can get a few more people with feedback, these packages should be ok to push.

Your rpms cleanly installed via rpm -Uvh on a c4.7 fully updated box; update from 9.2.4-30.el4_7.2 to 9.2.4-30.el4_8.4.
I am seeing no issues with any of the testing I have done.
Box is authoritative for it's own domain and ptr's for all internal networks; is not doing dnssec nor slaving to/from anyone else.

I have updated a slave server starting from:
#rpm -qa bind* bind-utils-9.2.4-30.el4 bind-9.2.4-30.el4 bind-chroot-9.2.4-30.el4 bind-libs-9.2.4-30.el4
No issues for rpm -Fvh *; zone transfers from master server + regular queries seem to be fine.
