Hi,
Actually: we are in a similar situation. We're currently running bind9,
and were interested in to switching to NSD for the authorative dns
services, but it seems that you have to compile newer releases (with
security fixes etc) yourself, or there is a repo somewhere we're missing?
We're on debian 10. It recommended to simply install the NSD that debian
comes with, and rely on debian for the security fixes?

Dear All,
I am working as a Professor in a University in India. For our
University, I want to setup an Authoritative Name Server. Currently we
are running djbdns, since long.
Although djbdns is a wonderful DNS server, the maintenance of it has
become very troublesome. It also lacks many new security features. The
BIND9, I am not convinced, if it will be useful in our case. Its a huge
software, and we dont need all the features of it.
I wan thinking of running my Authoritative Name Servers, Primary and
Secondary on NSD, as we are already using Unbound for recursive name
resolution.
I would like to get the comments from the users as to whether my
decision is correct or not? I have found that very few
tutorial/manuals/articles are available for the NSD setup . Being new to
NSD, I feel hesitant in replacing by running DNS server with NSD. Would
like to have some suggestions and comment. Kindly suggest any other
alternatives, if that is useful in my case.
Thank you.
