When I posted earlier today, it's done it twice in a week, it dumped again this afternoon. I'm running 8.2.3, and that's teh current "stable" version listed on ISC's web site. I appreciate that BIND is used by hundreds of thousands (if not millions) of networks around the world, but it's been less than reliable here. I've been using various versions of BIND for some 6 years now, and I've never seen it behave like this. In addition to that, if one is to believe the security warnings, everything before 8.2.3 has holes in it, and just because one's not been found, doesn't mean that 8.2.3 doesn't have one either. -- Troy Settle Pulaski Networks 540.994.4254 It's always a long day, 86400 doesn't fit into a short ** -----Original Message----- ** From: Leif Neland [mailto:leifn@neland.dk] ** Sent: Tuesday, February 27, 2001 4:57 PM ** To: Troy Settle ** Cc: freebsd-isp@FreeBSD.ORG ** Subject: Re: tinydns ** ** ** ** ** On Tue, 27 Feb 2001, Troy Settle wrote: ** ** > BIND is not an option here, I've been using it for years, and ** it's taken a ** > while, but it's proved itself completely unreliable to me. ** > ** Not to offend you, but what makes you so special so you are incompatible ** with BIND?
