It would take me a long time to get to grips with the Plan 9 DNS server (believe me, I've tried) and somehow my situation is getting more difficult as norms on the Internet are being bent by service provider that care for their profitability much more than for interoperation: I get regular failures that bring my connection to the Internet to a halt in unpredictable ways.
That may be due to a complicated network database, possibly with errors in it, but fixing that is also a mission I don't wish to get stuck into. Short-cut: 9front's dns server has undergone many changes from the Bell Labs sources I have on my production system , while 9legacy, at a glance, does not report any "dns" patches; my faith in Cinap is that he's likely to have applied sensible fixes (assuming it's his work, feel free to correct me). Chances are 9front ndb/dns binary will work OK on my system, but I have in fact compiled the 9front sources in the Bell Labs context and only a minor warning was reported. So the big question, before I commit to something I may not be competent to fix: what is recommended by those in the know?
