Hi Experts,

I would just like to know, how BIND takes care of the 2038 problem. Since
now DNSSEC has a lot to do with timings, there could be issues if someone
would set the signature expiry time to a large value (possibly after Y2K38).
This can create problems, if care is not taken in BIND code. Or does BIND
code is designed so that it relies on the OS to deal with this problem?

Just wanted to know how it is done or at least be assured.

Thanks in advance,
Kalpesh.
