Let's be clear on what "this" is please, since I don't think the OP's post was clear about what he wanted to implement. :) The default named.conf for FreeBSD implements local, empty zones for various things that should not be "live" on the Internet. I started with http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ietf-dnsop-default-local-zones and expanded the list to include other things referenced in RFCs. The goal is to provide fast local resolution for answers that should not be sent out to the Internet anyway. A pleasant side effect is that it reduces the amount of "garbage" queries received by the roots, etc. > though it does not include unassigned space as it will get assigned soon. That's a conscious choice, given the historical problems with admins not keeping such lists up to date. OTOH I think that the included examples give an interested admin more than enough information to do that on her own, if desired. In any case, I welcome comments and suggestions on improving this config. > You can see the config at: > http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/cvsweb.cgi/~checkout~/src/etc/namedb/named.conf?rev=1.31;content-type=text%2Fplain > > You can add the unassigned space to those fairly easily, but make sure > that you update it as space is assigned. Yes, this is worth saying again, and I agree with it (again). :) Doug -- ... and that's just a little bit of history repeating. -- Propellerheads Improve the effectiveness of your Internet presence with a domain name makeover! http://SupersetSolutions.com/ _______________________________________________ bind-users mailing list bind-users@lists.isc.org https://lists.isc.org/mailman/listinfo/bind-users
