i encourage anyone who thinks full resolvers can run inside end hosts which currently run stub resolvers, to try it.
BIND9 runs fine on windows and macos laptops. so, without even touching the real growth area of the edge (which is mobile devices like smart phones), you can get a sense of how rarely you'll be able to perform dns lookups, if you just switch to 127.0.0.1 as your name server (override this in your dhcp settings) and run a recursive dns server there. until you have done this and have results to report, you'd be wise not to make any claims about this possibility. (i've done this for over a decade, but, i always have a VPN open, which can use TCP/80 as a backup carriage path, and the VPN is absolutely necessary in my experience, and, that is a rather high bar for making localhost do dns recursion and iteration at scale.) vixie _______________________________________________ dns-operations mailing list dns-operations@lists.dns-oarc.net https://lists.dns-oarc.net/mailman/listinfo/dns-operations dns-jobs mailing list https://lists.dns-oarc.net/mailman/listinfo/dns-jobs
