Thanks to those who have responded with helpful replies. I understand now that the bind build does not have the api actually built in and that I have to install one.

I have the free GeoIP databases for initial testing. Can anyone point me to a walkthrough or give me the required steps. I've read the stuff I can find on ISC and it talks about using the --with-geoip config option and states: "BIND 9.10's GeoIP features work by allowing you to create ACL elements that evaluate based on the location information for the client's IP address. This uses the API provided by MaxMindR to query their GeoIP database but should work with any database in a compatible format." This makes it sound to me like the API for maxmind is built in to the bind code. What I get when trying to build out the bind "--with-geoip" Configure: error: GeoIP path not found so I tried to use " --with-geoip=/var/named/GeoIP" Path does not exist Used "--with-geoip=/var/named/chroot/var/named/GeoIP" (created the directory and put the databases here.) Now I get checking GeoIP.h usability... no checking GeoIP.h presence... no checking forGeoIP.h... no configure: error GeoIP header file not found the build directory for this release has geoip.h in bin/named/include/named I'm obviously missing some things.
