The misguided idea was to make a filename that would be unique for each view, but not to use the view name because those can contain characters that are illegal in file names (e.g., '/'). So it's a sha256 hash of the view name, which is guaranteed to be a legal file name because it's all hexadecimal. It's also guaranteed to be maximally confusing. As of BIND 9.10, it doesn't name files that way anymore. It'll still read an existing file using that naming format if it finds one, though. -- Evan Hunt -- e...@isc.org Internet Systems Consortium, Inc. _______________________________________________ Please visit https://lists.isc.org/mailman/listinfo/bind-users to unsubscribe from this list bind-users mailing list bind-users@lists.isc.org https://lists.isc.org/mailman/listinfo/bind-users
