Getting Error || unable to convert errno to isc_result

Hi

So, perhaps I need to update the bind package. 

Can anyone suggest, how can I install updated bind rpm in RHEL6.0?

Sincerely Yours

Possible yes but I'd suspect it had been addressed if it were severe enough - I haven't actually looked at it.   Another poster suggested a later update to BIND that is available in RHEL repository that may have addressed it if the version the OP has doesn't.

I just wanted to make the note about RHEL's methodology as it confuses folks (and security scanning tools) that only look at the base upstream version component of a package name rather than RHEL's extended versioning in the name.   RedHat sends errata alerts when they address things to let folks know to update packages to their latest extended version.     Just because you see a kernel "2.6.32" it doesn't mean it is exactly the same as the upstream vanilla version with that number.   It DOES mean that NEW features in upstream versions such as 3.x won't be there (unless of course a security issue that affects 3.x is found to also affect 2.6.32 at which point they'll backport).

Okay, sorry, did not know about the backporting.

Still, isn't it possible that this old bug is still present in this version of RHEL6?

They do the same thing for the BIND release they support within the main RHEL release.
