I think most people here use BIND as their DNS server of choise.

I just happen to have updated DLZ patch for the current bind version.

DLZ patch allows you to use mysql (pgsql, ldap etc) as a backend for
zone storage. I make no garantees, of course, but if anyone is interested
on the patch (with or without the specfile for rpm building), please
let me know.

Hi Rodrigo,

mind you asking whether one should use your bind-dlz patch and not bind sdb? PNAELV includes SDB within the bind package on current Fedora Core and newer. Maybe you can point me to a paper?

I actually never heard of sdb.
I'm not even able to find an specific URL for the project, even tho
I've found some pages for specific drivers:
http://www.venaas.no/ldap/bind-sdb/
http://sourceforge.net/projects/mysql-bind/

I'll go and take a look at it, so I can compare.

bind-dlz is far from complete. It only allow queries (no dynamic
updating for you, unless you go directly to the database), the
database is pretty confusing (but it can be easly improved),
and you can't have bind configuration itself on the database.

Maybe sdb will be better. I'll have to check it out.


Hi -

I don't know if it's been mentioned, but I thought I'd throw it out there.

I recently converted ~120k domains in DNS from BIND to MyDNS, and it's proving to work quite well. I'm extremely happy with it. Even moreso, implementing a secondary is as easy as MySQL replication. It's fast, has proven to be stable, and since it's MySQL-based, we are easily able to integrate it with our other systems.

More information can be found at http://mydns.bboy.net .

Hope that helps
