I'm interested in that as well (BIND 9 as a recursive server on Tru64 doesn't work in my experience), but I would suggest any discussion about that move over to the BIND list or the USENET gateway comp.protocols.dns.bind. -- Chris Adams <cmadams@hiwaay.net> Systems and Network Administrator - HiWAAY Internet Services I don't speak for anybody but myself - that's enough trouble.

Just as long as a pointer to the result is posted back here for those of us that are not BIND workers (merely BIND users). We are only running BIND 8, and although I'm about to try 9 on our dedicated mail recursor today ('cause we need this badly as our queues fill), I'm reluctant to just toss it in customer facing recursors yet. -- William Allen Simpson Key fingerprint = 17 40 5E 67 15 6F 31 26 DD 0D B9 9B 6A 15 2C 32

it's under consideration now. bind8 is not a priority for the bind forum, and isc would rather put it in feature-freeze, but we're looking into it. bind9's internals make "delegation-only" easy to implement. bind8's internals are pretty twisty.

works fine here. bind9 is what f-root runs, and also all of our recursive servers, some of which are tru64. try it, you'll like it.
but I would suggest any discussion about that move over to the BIND list or the USENET gateway comp.protocols.dns.bind.
agreed, other than to clear up the above in the same forum where it was heard. -- Paul Vixie

As the poster originally asking ISC about a patch for BIND8 on this list: I overcame my fear (probably exacerbated by prior talk about how pthreads were so "important" to bind9, and I'm on a pthreads-less system) and installed it today with only a couple config twiddles. I don't think I'm going back either. :-P (Although I noticed that NetBSD's pkgsrc version of bind9 doesn't install the HTML docs, which are now required in order to understand named.conf changes. I'll probably submit a change request for that.) -- -- Todd Vierling <tv@duh.org> <tv@pobox.com>
