Hi list,
I've switched from Obsd 5.3 from Pfsense to try it. Now I want come back
to Obsd. I prefer it.
Today, the last version is 5.8 and from 5.6 named was replaced from nsd
and unbound.
The first is only authoritative and the other is
recursive/forwarder/caching/validating/authoritative.
In my last valid OBSD config, I used named for my lan (not exposed on
internet) only for lan dns serving, not exposed, with recursion and
forwarder.
Now today I've nsd and unbound that I can use on my firewall.
I don't need authoritative server, and I should use unbound.
nsd and unbound have similar syntax and I reading from web I can resolve
dns with each of them.
Now I'm confused...who use? Correct me if I'm wrong:
1) I must use only nsd for authoritative server (internet exposed) for
my ipotetic zone (I can use it in my lan for dns resolver?).
2) I can use only unbound for lan dns resolving/caching/validating with
zones if not needed an authoritative domain.
3) I can use nsd for authoritative server (internet exposed) and for lan
use unbound as recursive/cache dns with the authoritative server.
4) I can use unbound as authoritative server and for recursing and other.
5) NSD is the best for authoritative and unbound for other things.
