	You must *start* named as root, in order to bind to port 953,
	since it is < 1024.  You can still use the -u flag to have
	named continue to run as a non-root user once it has done
	all of it's bindings.

	0.0.0.0 refers to all interfaces on your box.

	Can't help ya here.  I know Linux has mmencode, not sure
	where to get it for Solaris.
