Can't we make it work? I appreciate your honesty. But there are other
dns packages that do allow it. I'm looking for the flexibility to
extra-zone so i can manage root traffic in bind. Its obvious root get
bugus traffic - i advocate a traffic can to send those bogus tlds too.
I would love an AS112 stop sign. That also eliinate the legal liability
to me as a commercial operator of root.
It's easy to remove the checks but then you need to make sure
all clients will work with the resultant mess.
It already is a mess. has been for years. What we are doing is fixing
the mess using AS112. I know alot of root operators who would welcome
that friendly terminator for wayward traffic. But I need bind to
terminate *. NS. I feel sorry it does not.
Wildcard is defined for intra-zone use. It is not defined
for extra-zone use.
Lets define it. Just call it experimental. or something convenient. i
think its needed for root services. I am told it works under Dr.
Bernstein's named daemon. I still have not tested that myself. But
will eventually. I pray it is the case. Any root operator would
welcome a trash can for bogus traffic.
and its christmas time. what a wonderful gift.
