https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=3D217915 Bug ID: 217915 Summary: dns/bind911: remove special handling for example.com etc. Product: Ports & Packages Version: Latest Hardware: Any OS: Any Status: New Severity: Affects Many People Priority: --- Component: Individual Port(s) Assignee: mat@FreeBSD.org Reporter: eserte12@yahoo.de Flags: maintainer-feedback?(mat@FreeBSD.org) Assignee: mat@FreeBSD.org The default named.conf has special handling for a number of example domains (see https://github.com/freebsd/freebsd-ports/blob/master/dns/bind911/files/name= d.conf.in#L236-L242 ). This special handling effectively causes such names to resolve to 127.0.= 0.1 (e.g. example.com) or do not resolve at all (e.g. www.example.com). Reading chapter 6 of https://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc6761.txt it seems to= me that there should be *no* special handling for such names. Note that RFC 67= 61 updates RFC 2606, which seems to be BCP 32 wrapped up in a RFC. So probably these lines in named.conf.in should be removed. Other bind ports (e.g. bind99) also have the same default configuration, and probably should also be changed. --=20 You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.=
