Re: Stuck glue records in the GTLD servers??
Thanks for the tip. I've asked those with the proper authority to verify the registrar's records. I must admit that I find it unusual that this needs to be done. In my experience, the glue records automatically change when a domain's name servers are altered. However, I have never worked with this particular registrar before, so perhaps they do things differently. Regardless, thanks again. :) -- Milo Hyson Chief Scientist CyberLife Labs On Dec 15, 2008, at 16:05, Mark Andrews wrote: You need to contact the registar for netdentalcare.com and update the HOST record for ns.netdentalcare.com to have the new address record.

So, if this is a crucial fix to be incorporated in the final release we don't have much time. Just out of curiosity, how crucial do you think it is to bump the version? My understanding is that bumping the version will help if we keep supporting the first version for a reasonably long period, while chasing newer versions. Realistically, however, I suspect most users (especially those using advanced management tools like this script) will move to 9.5.1 (or 9.6.0) anyway, since 9.5.0 and its P1/P2 variants have other problems: vulnerability to the Kaminsky attack (in case of vanilla 9.5.0), performance issues due to file descriptor limitations, ACL crash/memory leak, cache memory management bug, etc. *If* we could assume no one realistically continues to stick to 9.5.0, wouldn't it be simpler just to drop the old format and migrate to the new one? (I understand the migration itself is a pain, and I apologize for the inconvenience.

Stuck glue records in the GTLD servers??

There are several domains which list the following as their nameservers: ns.netdentalcare.com ns2.netdentalcare.com The zone for these (netdentalcare.com) was moved to a new ISP several days ago.

You're absolutely right, and I apologize for your inconvenience. Moreover, we understand it's very important to keep backward compatibility for users of this type of published interfaces. So, we'll try to avoid introducing incompatible changes as much as possible in future versions in the first place. Regarding this change, it's a result of this fix: 2388. [bug] Avoid using tables for layout purposes in statistics XSL [RT #18159]. as indicated by the change category ('[bug]'), we thought fixing this issue was not just a style change, and it seemed to be the cleanest way to change the data structure as part of the fix. Ideally we should have done such an incompatible try-and-error fix in a beta version phase before a point-0 release, but in reality not many people try to use pre-0 beta versions to identify problems like this one. Again, we'll try to avoid incompatible changes as much as possible in future versions of 9.5 (and probably in other 9.x versions). It would be highly appreciated if you could point it out in a beta or RC phase in case we accidentally introduce incompatibility.

If you plan to use a plain zone file for the 50 million records, rather than using a separate backend database, you may want to precompile your zone file by named-compilezone.

Re: Issue with case changing from master on BIND 9 to slave on BIND 8
Some years ago, I had that issue. The problem was that the zone transfer compression mechanism could change the case of individual names. This was fixed in some release of bind (after 9.2.1, if I remember correctly), and bind release notes would pinpoint the exact version with the change. The problem was that the compression mechanism would compress a.example.COM and b.example.com by using a pointer to a single string, in one specific instance, "example.COM". When uncompressed at at the secondary end, the names came out as a.example.COM and b.example.COM.

However, ISC has chosen to change some tags in 9.6.0rc1 (nsstats -> nsstat, zonestats -> zonestat, resstats -> resstat). Unfortunately, they didn't bump the version of their XML schema (it's still reported as 1.0 in the tag), so it's hard to do right. I hope this is going to be fixed in the final 9.6.0 release. -- Alex ___ bind-users mailing list bind-users@lists.isc.org https://lists.isc.org/mailman/listinfo/bind-users
