To find the version of BIND this might work:

     strings named | grep "[0-9]" | more

I ran it on a Solaris 2.6 box (/usr/sbin/in.named), and I saw

     $Id: Version.c,v 8.1 1994/12/15 06:24:14 vixie Exp $
     named 4.9.4-P1

Obviously Sun does not supply the latest version of BIND.  I have
installed (and run) 8.2.2-p5 in another directory.
