To build on UNIX-like systems, BIND requires support for POSIX.1c
|
|
threads (IEEE Std 1003.1c-1995), the Advanced Sockets API for
|
|
IPv6 (RFC 3542), and standard atomic operations provided by the
|
|
C compiler.

The OpenSSL cryptography library must be available for the target
|
|
platform. A PKCS#11 provider can be used instead for Public Key
|
|
cryptography (i.e., DNSSEC signing and validation), but OpenSSL is
|
|
still required for general cryptography operations such as hashing
|
|
and random number generation.

file that is included in the source distribution of BIND 9. If your
|
|
compiler and system libraries provide the above features, BIND 9
|
|
should compile and run. If that isn't the case, the BIND
|
|
development team will generally accept patches that add support
|
|
for systems that are still supported by their respective vendors.
