2011? Considering I was mirroring the root zone on my laptop in 1996 (BSDi on a Hinote Ultra II FTW) and doing the same thing with a root zone I signed myself and with validation turned on with BIND 8.2 to test DNSSEC in 1999 (NetBSD on a Sony Vaio PGC-505 I think), yeah, I'd say so. I suspect there might even be some stuff in the BIND mailing list archives about it... Sigh. Regards, -drc
