Nilesh,

All current RH versions include packages for BIND 9.2.1.  9.2.1
resolves issues faced by earlier v9 releases such as:

	    http://www.cert.org/advisories/CA-2002-15.html

You should see no known issues with the RH packaged versions of 9.2.1
if they are up to date.  If you do, I am sure that Redhat would want
to know about it as they QA all of the packages included as part of
their distributions.  You can install the latest RH packages via the
command:

up2date bind

On 7.3, this installs bind-9.2.1-1.7x.2.  I have tested 9.2.1 pretty
heavily under RH Linux and would be a little surprised if you found
any major problems with this version.  If you build yourself, you will
likely see the best results by disabling threading on Linux and use
only recent versions of openssl that patch the SSL bugs of last year.

The redhat built version includes the buffer overflow patches to
address the libbind/libresolv vulnerability:

Good luck and be sure to let all of us know if do find problems with
9.2.1.
