it's under consideration now. bind8 is not a priority for the bind forum, and isc would rather put it in feature-freeze, but we're looking into it. bind9's internals make "delegation-only" easy to implement. bind8's internals are pretty twisty. > I'm interested in that as well (BIND 9 as a recursive server on Tru64 > doesn't work in my experience), works fine here. bind9 is what f-root runs, and also all of our recursive servers, some of which are tru64. try it, you'll like it. > but I would suggest any discussion about that move over to the BIND list > or the USENET gateway comp.protocols.dns.bind. agreed, other than to clear up the above in the same forum where it was heard. -- Paul Vixie
