BIND 9.1.0a1

BIND 9.1.0b1
|
||||
|
||||
BIND 9.1.0b1 is the first beta release of BIND 9.1.0.
|
||||
It includes a number of new features:
|
||||
|
||||
- Many BIND 8 features previously unimplemented in BIND 9,
|
||||
including domain-specific forwarding, the $GENERATE
|
||||
master file directive, and the "blackhole", "dialup",
|
||||
and "sortlist" options
|
||||
|
||||
- Forwarding of dynamic update requests; this is enabled
|
||||
by the "allow-update-forwarding" option
|
||||
|
||||
- A new, simplified database interface and a number of
|
||||
sample drivers based on it; see doc/dev/sdb for details
|
||||
|
||||
- Support for building single-threaded servers for
|
||||
environments that do not supply POSIX threads
|
||||
|
||||
- New configuration options: "min-refresh-time",
|
||||
"max-refresh-time", "min-retry-time", "max-retry-time",
|
||||
"additional-from-auth", "additional-from-cache",
|
||||
"notify explicit"
|
||||
|
||||
- Faster lookups, particularly in large zones.
|
||||
|
||||
BIND 9.1.0 also includes experimental implementations of a
|
||||
number of DNS protocols extensions still under development
|
||||
in the IETF. These include transparent processing of
|
||||
unknown RR types and use of the EDNS "DNSSEC OK" bit to
|
||||
explicitly enable DNSSEC processing in responses.
|
||||
|
||||
Cryptographic operations are now based on the OpenSSL
|
||||
library instead of DNSsafe.
|
||||
|
||||
Numerous bugs have been fixed.
|
||||
|
||||
BIND 9.1.0 is primarily a name server software distribution.
|
||||
In addition to the name server, it also includes a new
|
||||
lightweight stub resolver library and associated resolver
|
||||
daemon that fully support forward and reverse lookups of both
|
||||
IPv4 and IPv6 addresses. This library is still considered
|
||||
experimental and is not a complete replacement for the BIND 8
|
||||
resolver library. Applications that use the BIND 8 res_*
|
||||
functions to perform DNS lookups or dynamic updates still need
|
||||
to be linked against the BIND 8 libraries. For DNS lookups,
|
||||
they can also use the new "getrrsetbyname()" API.
|
||||
|
||||
BIND 9.1.0 is capable of acting as an authoritative server
|
||||
for DNSSEC secured zones. This functionality is believed to
|
||||
be stable and complete except for lacking support for wildcard
|
||||
records in secure zones.
|
||||
|
||||
When acting as a caching server, BIND 9.1.0 can be configured
|
||||
to perform DNSSEC secure resolution on behalf of its clients.
|
||||
This part of the DNSSEC implementation is still considered
|
||||
experimental. For detailed information about the state of the
|
||||
DNSSEC implementation, see the file doc/misc/dnssec.
|
||||
|
||||
There are a few known bugs:
|
||||
|
||||
On some systems, IPv6 and IPv4 sockets interact in
|
||||
unexpected ways. For details, see doc/misc/ipv6.
|
||||
To reduce the impact of these problems, the server
|
||||
no longer listens for requests on IPv6 addresses
|
||||
by default. If you need to accept DNS queries over
|
||||
IPv6, you must specify "listen-on-v6 { any; };"
|
||||
in the named.conf options statement.
|
||||
|
||||
There are known problems with thread signal handling
|
||||
under Solaris 2.6.
|
||||
|
||||
On FreeBSD systems, the server logs error messages
|
||||
like "fcntl(8, F_SETFL, 4): Inappropriate ioctl for
|
||||
device". This is due to a bug in the FreeBSD
|
||||
/dev/random device. The bug has been reported
|
||||
to the FreeBSD maintainers. Versions of OpenBSD
|
||||
prior to 2.8 have a similar problem.
|
||||
|
||||
--with-libtool does not work on AIX.
|
||||
|
||||
This is an unreleased alpha version of BIND 9.1.0.
