+# Additional information for DNS setup using BIND
+
+# You must make the following configuration changes to BIND to support
+# Samba's AD DC:
+
+#
+# Steps for BIND 9.8.x and 9.9.x -----------------------------------------
+#
+
+# 1. Insert following lines into the options {} section of your named.conf
+# file:
+tkey-gssapi-keytab "${DNS_KEYTAB_ABS}";
+minimal-responses yes;
+
+# 2. If SELinux is enabled, ensure that all files have the appropriate
+# SELinux file contexts. The ${DNS_KEYTAB} file must be accessible by the
+# BIND daemon and should have a SELinux type of named_conf_t. This can be
+# set with the following command:
+chcon -t named_conf_t ${DNS_KEYTAB_ABS}
+
+# Even if not using SELinux, do confirm (only) BIND can access this file as the
+# user it becomes (generally not root).
+
+#
+# Steps for BIND 9.x.x using BIND9_DLZ ------------------------------
+#
+
+# 3. Disable chroot support in BIND.
+# BIND is often configured to run in a chroot, but this is not
+# compatible with access to the dns/sam.ldb files that database
+# access and updates require. Additionally, the DLZ plugin is
+# linked to a large number of Samba shared libraries and loads
+# additonal plugins.
+
+#
+# Steps for BIND 9.x.x using BIND9_FLATFILE ------------------------------
+#
+
+# 3. Ensure the BIND zone file(s) that will be dynamically updated are in
+# a directory where the BIND daemon can write. When BIND performs
+# dynamic updates, it not only needs to update the zone file itself but
+# it must also create a journal (.jnl) file to track the dynamic updates
+# as they occur. Under Fedora 9, the /var/named directory can not be
+# written to by the "named" user. However, the directory /var/named/dynamic
+# directory does provide write access. Therefore the zone files were
+# placed under the /var/named/dynamic directory. The file directives in
+# both example zone statements at the beginning of this file were changed
+# by prepending the directory "dynamic/".
