No IXFR, no automatic notification of bind slaves (you get to run a separate notify script) ... No RFC requires a specfic system of notification. Seperate notify scripts are ok, rsync is even better! Oh wait, does bind support rsync ?
But yes, it is far easier to use, consumes very low amounts of memory and makes an excellent local resolver cache e&oe no roundrobin DNS without a patch (as in it returns all the A records in the same order every time, whereas bind does this in a different order ...) Bind should patent this.
No v6 support without a patch either
Oh yes, patch, patch ... welcome to patching hell if you run qmail or any other djb ware :) Yeah we tech folk hate patching.
As I mentioned earlier, djb - non-djb is a religion thing: rfc-wise, feature-wise (bind supports something, tinydns should too). Niek Baakman --
