Great, i'll keep telling anyone using BIND to not to :-P
I am personally looking for an alternative to BIND. I just don't like
djbdns :P
I have used bind, powerdns, djbdns. Out of all three, both powerdns and
djbdns separate the cache from
the authoratative portion, for instance, on powerdns, it's recursor
lacks something to be desired, it has
not matured - yet. So in that case, you end up running dnscache or bind
as the backend caching nameserver.
From an ISP standpoint after having done pretty much all three, bind
and it's operation and the way
it is supposed to behave, is the best and least problematic
(maintenance is not as easy as with the other
two). Given the vast amount of help one may get on a small ISP and
needing someone with enough experience to deal with BIND if you are
going on vacation, anything much more complex than shutting down
and restarting the server, is a pipe dream. Most people I ever got
didn't have a clue about *nix, didn't
wanna know, and were just Windows geeks. The new BIND mentions using
different backends on
the authoritative side, so maybe someone will come up with a plugin
that will work.
I like Microsoft DNS Server better than djbdns. . . But I digress. . .
