RES: Bind 9.6.1 stops after few hours.

Hi Rob, I could not reproduce this behavior on my Linux lab machine using queryperf. As Jinmei pointed this seens to be a Solaris thing. I still could not reproduce the problem I faced on my own production DNS... Thanks for your post! Laurence -Mensagem original- De: Rob Payne [mail

I have been thinking of this same issue lately when I had to move a dns service from one host to another to re-build the OS. I use virtual IPs on the host making it relatively easy to move the service around. But as I use Solaris 10 as the platform I am thinking that Zones would be a winner

DNSKEY dynamic update: unexpected change 9.6.0-P1 -> 9.6.1

2009-07-08 Thread Shumon Huque
Upgrading from 9.6.0-P1 to 9.6.1 on my master server unexpectedly changed DNSKEY dynamic update behavior. My tools to secure zones rely on insertion of DNSKEY records via dynamic update. This stopped working when I upgraded to 9.6.1. The culprit seems to be: *** bind-9.6.0-P1/bin/named/update.c
