Among above, the only version that could cause the "too many open file descriptors" problem is 9.4.2-P2 (this doesn't mean you can safely use the others; they are vulnerable to the so-called 'Kaminsky' caching poisoning attacks). Regarding 9.4.2-P2, I'd strongly recommend to upgrade to 9.4.3-P1. 9.4.2-P2 has a fundamental performance problem due to the use of inefficient socket API, which has been solved in 9.4.3 and onward. If you still have the same problem with 9.4.3-P1, please report it again. --- JINMEI, Tatuya Internet Systems Consortium, Inc. _______________________________________________ bind-users mailing list [email protected] https://lists.isc.org/mailman/listinfo/bind-users
