Veronique,

There are two restrictions:

max-types-per-name 100; (Unlikely to cause issues)
max-records-per-type 100;
So to list the counts of each each name you could use the following command:

dig -t axfr $zone  @$server | awk '{print $1,$4}' | sort | uniq -c | sort -n


Where $zone is zone FQDN and $server is DNS server.
When I ran this command the following two entries had the highest counts:


NNN _ldap._tcp.DomainDnsZones.~~~.com

NNN _ldap._tcp.ForestDnsZones.~~~.com

Thanks,
--James

Hi,
We had the same issue as James, fortunately with no impact on production.
But I agree that , although I finally found the warning at the very bottom of the mail announcing the new release,  this MAJOR change should have been announced more clearly. How do you find out whether or not you have domains with more than 100 records? I myself was not aware of that until our domain got dropped (on a non-production server, luckily)

cheers,
Veronique

Hi James,

I understand this has caused you some discomfort, but it was documented both in the release notes and in the announcement and it was necessary to introduce the limits because more fix would have to be intrusive refactoring of the internals,
and that is exactly the thing that we were trying to avoid.

As for your suggestion to ship the BIND 9 in a vulnerable state - that would be
absolutely wrong thing to do. We released the new version to make sure the
BIND 9 is not vulnerable in the default configuration and administrators might assess the risks when increasing the value of the max-types-per-name for their
particular environment.

Cheers,
Ondrej

It is not uncommon to have hundreds of DC's in a domain, so setting a limit of 100 will likely cause a series of unexpected outages for IT administrators.   Because this change restricts existing functionality, This is a breaking change and as such should be reserved to a minor release. If this feature was critical to resolve an issue a provider was having, it should be shipped with default values of 0 causing it to be effectively disabled allowing the provider to opt in.<HmgILl6x1HGckq4d.png>I   was able to resolve this issue by adding the following directive to the affected views:
