Does anybody happen to know.....
With BIND 9, if the MNAME resolves to multiple A records and "notify yes" is
specified, do notifies get withheld from all specified NS destinations that
resolve to any of the addresses associated with the MNAME? Or do notifies only
get withheld from NS destinations whose fqdn's mnemonically match the MNAME
field?
Has it been decided yet for BIND 10 how the multiple masters will be specified?
Will BIND 10 follow Microsoft's lead where the MNAME in each zone is set to
match the server name on which the zone resides? Or might the MNAME be allowed
to have multiple A records to give dynamic DNS clients more than one choice?
Does anyone know how existing Microsoft DNS client code reacts to having the
MNAME resolve to multiple A records? What about non-Microsoft DNS client codes?
Does Microsoft DNS client code ever use any other DDNS target identifier other
than the MNAME? I know some old codes used the NS records and/or the client's
resolver list, but it is my understanding that both of those techniques have
been completely abandoned -- does anyone believe otherwise? And are there any
other techniques used by Microsoft that perhaps I've never heard of -- anyone
know?
Does anyone have any other interesting information about BIND 10 with respect
to multi-master dynamic zone functionality?
Thanks.
