Helping with BIND

[untz]

Hello there,

I just bought a VPS from RimuHosting...

Took a look at the Quick Start Guide and noticed that I bought a domain from Network Solutions.

Never launched a web site before, so I am new to this.

Somes Issues:

1. When I went into WebMin and selected Servers and BIND it stated:

"The BIND DNS server /usr/sbin/named could not be found on your system. Maybe it is not installed, or your BIND module configuration is incorrect.

The BIND package can be automatically installed by Webmin. Click here to have it downloaded and installed using APT."

When I clicked on "Automatically Install using WebMin", I got:

Installing package(s) with command apt-get -y -f install bind9 ..

Reading Package Lists...
Building Dependency Tree...

...install failed!

When I tried to do it from the command line, this is what I got:

[root@simplicitize ~]# apt-get -y -f install bind9
Reading Package Lists... Done
Building Dependency Tree... Done
E: Couldn't find package bind9

Any help, suggestions, are greatly appreciated!

It is probably called "bind" and not "bind9".

Do a search in apt (update first):
# apt-get update
# apt-cache search bind

Then install the correct package.
