It is not on sunfreeware.com I have tried to submit and or suggest several
packages to them including the latest Bind since I was willing to make the
packages for the site.  Seems they are not allowed to take submissions,
since under contract (Sun) they must make the packages....

And they wonder why linux gets good marks for support ;)

Intel/SPARC shouldn't make a difference.  Just go to www.isc.org, download
the source, and follow the instructions to build and install it.

You could also check www.sunfreeware.com to see if there's a precompiled
binary for it.  I tried before posting but the server seems to be down.
