bind-9.0.0rc3 success (yay!) and tiny problem (eh)

[Tom Jennings]

First, BIND 9 solves my annoying sub-domain "leakage" problem (where
BIND that was authoritative for DOMAIN.COM and SUB.DOMAIN.COM would
include data from SUB.DOMAIN.COM into axfrs for the DOMAIN.COM
zone). Whew!

The only changes I needed to make (for Linux version 2.2.16-3) was
running named as root instead of user named (trivial PID file
hassles) and to upgrade all my zone files to include an explicit
TTL. These were both in the migration readme.

The only non-documented issue I ran into was that the built-in acl
"any" is now case sensitive. ANY used to work whereas in v9 it
requires any.

This isn't a problem, except that the error message is scary:

(((test invokation, not the real thing!)))

Here's line 90 from the config file:

        allow-query { ANY; };   /* this domain is public */

Changed to lower case, works fine. The list 0/0 works fine too.


Thanks for the code! It works great.
