Scalix 11 Failing to install cannot find "dig"

[frustratednistaller]

We are trying to install Scalix 11.0.2.29 on a RHE4 Server and we are getting nowhere fast. We have run it with the --debug option and below are the final few lines of the installation. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

2008-01-29 21:51:52,954 WARNING configured mail domain could not be determined
2008-01-29 21:51:53,011 INFO Ending Scalix Installer - Msg: Cannot find command on system: dig

The installer uses the dig command to lookup hostnames and verify the configured mail domain. Its failing because dig is not available.

You can get dig by installing bind-utils on RHEL4.

p.s. 11.3 is out now, thats a lot better than 11.0.2.
