Greetings,

I installed bind and on startup it says...
Quote:

starting named ... [ok]

Then it says...
Quote:

process 'named' is using obsolete setsockopt SO_BSDCOMPAT

How do I get rid of this or fix this?

To get rid of the message either patch the sources and recompile the package or use grep -v to ignore it.
So far as a user is concerned, there is nothing to fix, ignore the message.

Recompiling without modifying the source will do nothing of use, leaving it alone causes no functional problems.

Indicates that named (the DNS daemon) called the function setsockopt (declared in <sys/socket.h>) with the flag SO_BSDCOMPAT (which is now obsolete), which means that named has not been patched to not use an old (now meaningless) flag when it is not appropriate.

If you really want to get rid of the messages, a procedure is outlined at http://www.hants.lug.org.uk/cgi-bin/wiki.pl?LinuxHints/RedHat_2.4_To_2.6_Kernel_Upgrade, modifying that process for Gentoo is beyond the scope of this post.
