<p>I recommend the creation of a new manifest as the one provided in SUNWbindr 
may change in the future (as it has already done so in the past) in an 
incompatible way to which you run your service.</p>

<p>As outlined in <a 
href="http://www.opensolaris.org/os/community/arc/caselog/2006/553/onepager/";>PSARC
 2006/553</a> it is our intention to provide BIND 9.3.3 in Solaris OE.  One of 
the purposes for this upgrade is to utilize named's '-4' and or '-6' command 
line option (as I see you have done).  However as SMF provides properties to be 
used rather than command line options I'm creating a smf_method(5) which will 
act upon new instance properties...  In summary the start/exec property in the 
future will not reference /usr/sbin/named directly.</p>

<p>During the upgrade it is the intention to try and deal with alternative 
locations of 'named' and
to migrate useful command line options to the documented properties, see <a 
href="http://www.opensolaris.org/jive/thread.jspa?messageID=83128";>Thread: DNS 
server manifest: how to migrate exec string options to properties</a>.  However 
to avoid issues I recommend that for non SUNWbind versions a new manifest is 
created.</p>
