Using BIND-9.18.5 as a recursive server:

Any hints why BIND adds the additional section while other resolvers
doesn't? Is there an option in BIND to behave like Knot/PDNS?

The option is "minimal-responses".  If you set it to "yes", it will omit
authority and additional section data except when necessary.

The default is "no-auth-recursive", which omits authority section data
when it isn't strictly necessary, but will still add additional data for
records in the answer section.


I've already set "minimal-responses yes;", but the additional section/data is still shown. So based on your explanation, BIND assumes, this data is necessary, why? And why behaves BIND different here than Knot/PDNS where no additional section is shown for the same query?

Does an BIND expert has an idea or an explanation, why the additional section is still shown, although "minimal-responses yes;" is set? And why the additional section seems necessary for BIND and not for example for Knot/PDNS for the same query?

Many thanks for any hints.
