Just upgraded bind and see that it reccomends adding some lines to
named.conf to avoid the A wildcard
* zone com IN { type delegation-only; };
* zone net IN { type delegation-only; };
I have named.conf set to forward to the upstream DNS only (ISP,
University DNS etc): e.g.,
forwarders {
// 123.123.123.123;
// 123.123.123.123;
nnn.nnn.nnn.nnn;
};
Is this necessary in my configuration, if not, when should the above be
used. I use bind as a pure caching DNS at some sites, and with some
local zones added at others.
