"Why, Santy Claus, why?" said Cindy Loo Who, who's no more than two. Yes, Virginia, z/OS uses BIND. It's not a question of whether we can cradle the z/OS version, it is a question of whether people find a native DNS server sufficiently useful to distract us from things like ssh, IPv6, IPsec, improving SSL/TLS infrastructure and capability, encrypting dumps, or <your fave requirement>. And if the virtual grass is always going to be greener on the other side, what to do? Should I stop mowing the lawn? (I admit to not wanting to answer the question "Should we run a DNS server on VM?" any more.) Alan Altmark z/VM Development IBM Endicott
