I like whatever works in regards to the situation I'm facing ;) We used BIND for years, but with hundreds of domains, I personally had to manage the zones, lest someone made a typo in a zone or a config file. I switched us over to DJBDNS a few years ago, simply for the ability to throw VegaDNS at it in order to provide a safe method to delegate domain management to other staff. Many of our servers are still BIND however. I prefer BIND myself. Some of the BIND servers slave for the djb servers, and others handle other tasks, particularly all of my zones with IPv6 records. > I'm a happy bind user for years now (and I use sendmail as well). I switched from sendmail to Qmail on our core MTAs for the same reasons stated above. At one point, I wrote CGI wrapper applications so staff could manage email accounts, but it just got too much. I standardized on Matt Simerson's Mail Toaster about 6 years ago, simply for the ease-of-management (ie I don't have to do it). To me, the product that is better is the one that removes me from having to use and manage it, and allows me to do other things ;) Steve [-- Attachment #2 --] 0 *H 01 0 + 0 *H 00CK9AbxIUw0 *H 0b1 0 UZA1%0#U Thawte Consulting (Pty) Ltd.1,0*U#Thawte Personal Freemail Issuing CA0 090507231610Z 100507231610Z0B1 0 UThawte Freemail Member1 0 *H steve@ibctech.ca0"0 *H 0 DZ杙<2IⵀfrsE6 q?0.> S@Œ!V?A\Q r-aZ Ōf/0{OYQhɏߴ F_\Q0BF=<_.a*3ep eY |t ݼcvlҷ+@p iQA{2E9 WN4[Z`h6VM/zPbd(G C ^K6XV4j<t -0+0U 0steve@ibctech.ca0 U 0 0 *H æ|85aQz-*3HG .s*Fw*`HvFw; 9ytƘn0taC/:WC+LÙ{Oq 1 n00CK9AbxIUw0 *H 0b1 0 UZA1%0#U Thawte Consulting (Pty) Ltd.1,0*U#Thawte Personal Freemail Issuing CA0 090507231610Z 100507231610Z0B1 0 UThawte Freemail Member1 0 *H steve@ibctech.ca0"0 *H 0 DZ杙<2IⵀfrsE6 q?0.> S@Œ!V?A\Q r-aZ Ōf/0{OYQhɏߴ F_\Q0BF=<_.a*3ep eY |t ݼcvlҷ+@p iQA{2E9 WN4[Z`h6VM/zPbd(G C ^K6XV4j<t -0+0U 0steve@ibctech.ca0 U 0 0 *H æ|85aQz-*3HG .s*Fw*`HvFw; 9ytƘn0taC/:WC+LÙ{Oq 1 n0?0 0 *H 01 0 UZA10U Western Cape10U Cape Town10U Thawte Consulting1(0&U Certification Services Division1$0"UThawte Personal Freemail CA1+0) *H personal-freemail@thawte.com0 030717000000Z 130716235959Z0b1 0 UZA1%0#U Thawte Consulting (Pty) Ltd.1,0*U#Thawte Personal Freemail Issuing CA00 *H 0 Ħ<UsUNʙZ hup [v :aQP 0cZ,p+Z?qV˯< 6$*+w=+>@dקe*TH<a@ dr` 00U 0 0CU <0:08642http://crl.thawte.com/ThawtePersonalFreemailCA.crl0 U 0)U "0 0 10UPrivateLabel2-1380 *H HP . fgCL!6 -6/ P p<ab:~ t%Pb'qW%ݩ9 Oe_N4[5MwV!x!5$ F]_eO1d0`0v0b1 0 UZA1%0#U Thawte Consulting (Pty) Ltd.1,0*U#Thawte Personal Freemail Issuing CAK9AbxIUw0 + 0 *H 1 *H 0 *H 1 090714122113Z0# *H 1d8_7U 8cEx0R *H 1E0C0 *H 0*H 0 *H @0+0 *H (0 +71x0v0b1 0 UZA1%0#U Thawte Consulting (Pty) Ltd.1,0*U#Thawte Personal Freemail Issuing CAK9AbxIUw0 *H 1xv0b1 0 UZA1%0#U Thawte Consulting (Pty) Ltd.1,0*U#Thawte Personal Freemail Issuing CAK9AbxIUw0 *H h22j]S; |G !8~%nSF'KΤ,YNL!kꙨ5 :WVW [+'9^&z>w(X֢ͅ#Ǘϫo\Y '_ }U3LFũF@%fl!& !~C7$C,djq$H#ʈMlb ; X@mf;!Vuv9:rhelp
