Question How do I revert to Bind 8 from Bind 9?

While on vacation, Red Hat's update agent updated me to Bind 9 ... after perusing the 'net for a while, I know I don't want this.

How can I uninstall BIND 9 and revert back to BIND 8?

I don't even know where to start ... please help.

Perhaps I'm missing the point but...

1) Uninstall BIND9
2) Reinstall BIND8

The format of the config file (named.conf) is mainly identical.

Regards

I don't know where to begin with uninstall BIND 9. Since it was through the RH update agent, is it in the RPM datbase? and if so, what are the dependencies I have to watch out for?
