Just had to get the root.cache file, and on ftp://rs.internic.net/domain,
I noticed a few other files. For example, the
root.zone.gz - gzipped root zone file
one, which is updated daily, and contains all information for top
level name servers (net, ch, com, fr...).
Would it be a good idea to replace my little root.cache by this
bigger root.zone ? (with daily updates) ? And what about the
inaddr.zone.gz - gzipped inaddr zone file
? Didn't found infos about these files in any faq or book.
But if it could speed up my name servers, why not ? :)
If you have some pointers with informations about that, feel
free to post!
Greetings,
Olivier
