ISPConfig 2.2.37 and BIND 9.7

Just finished upgrading to the latest version if ISPConfig, version 2.2.37, which included some updates to ClamAV, SpamAssassin, and PHP. The control panel uses its own standalone versions of PHP and Apache. In the past I would usually just rebuild the server when a new version of ISPConfig was released, but I am hosting more sites now and the thought it might be easier to upgraded rather than trying to migrate every site and database as well as all of the e-mails, web stats, and config files. I think everything is working now. I had to change a few config files which were overwritten in order to setup the backup script and also re-open some ports in the iptables firewall.

I also upgraded BIND from 9.3 to 9.7, it was a bit more complicated than upgrading PHP but I think I got it. I am not currently using this server as an authoritative name server so it is not a big deal, but it was still a good learning experience.
