:And people wonder why I put Jeroen Ruigrok/Asmodai in my from: field. :)
:
:Anyway, I already imported a patch into CURRENT which should fix
:nsupdate, and hopefully your problems as well.
:
:I am already discussing some other things with Mark Andrews with regard
:to BIND.
:
:Fact is 8.2.3 also has issues which can cause stability problems over
:time.

See if you can convince them to rip out the 5% ttl reduction crap.
There's a 'NOADDITIONAL' option that does it, which I have had to set
in FreeBSD's Makefile to make named behave consistently for certain
(illegal but common) misconfigurations, but even though the issue has
been known for over a year they still haven't ripped the code out or
made the more consistent behavior the default.
I am continuously annoyed by bind's instability... there's just no excuse
after so many years. But I'm not annoyed enough to replace it with
something like djbdns.
