ok...I downloaded it and installed in on a new server I'm building. I am
NOT impressed! Of course it is probably just my ignorance on the new
features of BIND 9.1, BUT...
So far I can't start it with -u daemon -g daemon. I can only do the -u. I
guess I'll have to figure out how to chroot jail the thing.
Also, there is a notice in the nslookup command that mentions that nslookup
is going away. Supposedly we are to start using 'dig' and 'host' to do our
DNS queries! What if someone wants to change the DNS server that is used
for a basis of the query? Hmm...I'm sure it is just ignorance on my part
and some change is good, but doesn't nslookup do everything we need it to
do??
