That is a setting with MIT krb5, and an admin could feel safe to enable it 
after setting up DNSSEC.

I’ve been thinking along these lines, and would prefer to be able to install a 
secure name resolver on my KDC, and making it *require* DNSSEC.  This could 
also help to trust remote, unknown zones.  I wrote it down on

It seems that I am the only one who sees a case for *insisting* on DNSSEC, or 
do others on this list agree there is a need?

Cheers,
