BIND 9 BIND version 9 is a major rewrite of nearly all aspects of the underlying BIND architecture. Some of the important features of BIND 9 are: - DNS Security DNSSEC (signed zones) TSIG (signed DNS requests) - IP version 6 Answers DNS queries on IPv6 sockets IPv6 resource records (AAAA) Experimental IPv6 Resolver Library - DNS Protocol Enhancements IXFR, DDNS, Notify, EDNS0 Improved standards conformance - Views One server process can provide multiple "views" of the DNS namespace, e.g. an "inside" view to certain clients, and an "outside" view to others. - Multiprocessor Support - Improved Portability Architecture BIND version 9 development has been underwritten by the following organizations: Sun Microsystems, Inc. Hewlett Packard Compaq Computer Corporation IBM Process Software Corporation Silicon Graphics, Inc. Network Associates, Inc. U.S. Defense Information Systems Agency USENIX Association Stichting NLnet - NLnet Foundation Nominum, Inc. BIND 9.6-ESV (Extended Support Version) BIND 9.6-ESV will be supported until March 31, 2013, at which time you will need to upgrade to the current release of BIND. BIND 9.6.2 BIND 9.6.2 is a maintenance release, fixing bugs in 9.6.1. It also introduces support for the SHA-2 DNSSEC algorithms, RSASHA256 and RSASHA512. Known issues in this release: - A validating resolver that has been incorrectly configured with an invalid trust anchor will be unable to resolve names covered by that trust anchor. In all current versions of BIND 9, such a resolver will also generate significant unnecessary DNS traffic while trying to validate. The latter problem will be addressed in future BIND 9 releases. In the meantime, to avoid these problems, exercise caution when configuring "trusted-keys": make sure all keys are correct and current when you add them, and update your configuration in a timely manner when keys roll over. BIND 9.6.1 BIND 9.6.1 is a maintenance release, fixing bugs in 9.6.0. BIND 9.6.0 BIND 9.6.0 includes a number of changes from BIND 9.5 and earlier releases, including: Full NSEC3 support Automatic zone re-signing New update-policy methods tcp-self and 6to4-self The BIND 8 resolver library, libbind, has been removed from the BIND 9 distribution and is now available as a separate download. Change the default pid file location from /var/run to /var/run/{named,lwresd} for improved chroot/setuid support. BIND 9.5.0 BIND 9.5.0 has a number of new features over 9.4, including: GSS-TSIG support (RFC 3645). DHCID support. Experimental http server and statistics support for named via xml. More detailed statistics counters including those supported in BIND 8. Faster ACL processing. Use Doxygen to generate internal documentation. Efficient LRU cache-cleaning mechanism. NSID support. BIND 9.4.0 BIND 9.4.0 has a number of new features over 9.3, including: Implemented "additional section caching (or acache)", an internal cache framework for additional section content to improve response performance. Several configuration options were provided to control the behavior. New notify type 'master-only'. Enable notify for master zones only. Accept 'notify-source' style syntax for query-source. rndc now allows addresses to be set in the server clauses. New option "allow-query-cache". This lets "allow-query" be used to specify the default zone access level rather than having to have every zone override the global value. "allow-query-cache" can be set at both the options and view levels. If "allow-query-cache" is not set then "allow-recursion" is used if set, otherwise "allow-query" is used if set unless "recursion no;" is set in which case "none;" is used, otherwise the default (localhost; localnets;) is used. rndc: the source address can now be specified. ixfr-from-differences now takes master and slave in addition to yes and no at the options and view levels. Allow the journal's name to be changed via named.conf. 'rndc notify zone [class [view]]' resend the NOTIFY messages for the specified zone. 'dig +trace' now randomly selects the next servers to try. Report if there is a bad delegation. Improve check-names error messages. Make public the function to read a key file, dst_key_read_public(). dig now returns the byte count for axfr/ixfr. allow-update is now settable at the options / view level. named-checkconf now checks the logging configuration. host now can turn on memory debugging flags with '-m'. Don't send notify messages to self. Perform sanity checks on NS records which refer to 'in zone' names. New zone option "notify-delay". Specify a minimum delay between sets of NOTIFY messages. Extend adjusting TTL warning messages. Named and named-checkzone can now both check for non-terminal wildcard records. "rndc freeze/thaw" now freezes/thaws all zones. named-checkconf now check acls to verify that they only refer to existing acls. The server syntax has been extended to support a range of servers. Report differences between hints and real NS rrset and associated address records. Preserve the case of domain names in rdata during zone transfers. Restructured the data locking framework using architecture dependent atomic operations (when available), improving response performance on multi-processor machines significantly. x86, x86_64, alpha, powerpc, and mips are currently supported. UNIX domain controls are now supported. Add support for additional zone file formats for improving loading performance. The masterfile-format option in named.conf can be used to specify a non-default format. A separate command named-compilezone was provided to generate zone files in the new format. Additionally, the -I and -O options for dnssec-signzone specify the input and output formats. dnssec-signzone can now randomize signature end times (dnssec-signzone -j jitter). Add support for CH A record. Add additional zone data constancy checks. named-checkzone has extended checking of NS, MX and SRV record and the hosts they reference. named has extended post zone load checks. New zone options: check-mx and integrity-check. edns-udp-size can now be overridden on a per server basis. dig can now specify the EDNS version when making a query. Added framework for handling multiple EDNS versions. Additional memory debugging support to track size and mctx arguments. Detect duplicates of UDP queries we are recursing on and drop them. New stats category "duplicates". "USE INTERNAL MALLOC" is now runtime selectable. The lame cache is now done on a <qname,qclass,qtype> basis as some servers only appear to be lame for certain query types. Limit the number of recursive clients that can be waiting for a single query (<qname,qtype,qclass>) to resolve. New options clients-per-query and max-clients-per-query. dig: report the number of extra bytes still left in the packet after processing all the records. Support for IPSECKEY rdata type. Raise the UDP recieve buffer size to 32k if it is less than 32k. x86 and x86_64 now have seperate atomic locking implementations. named-checkconf now validates update-policy entries. Attempt to make the amount of work performed in a iteration self tuning. The covers nodes clean from the cache per iteration, nodes written to disk when rewriting a master file and nodes destroyed per iteration when destroying a zone or a cache. ISC string copy API. Automatic empty zone creation for D.F.IP6.ARPA and friends. Note: RFC 1918 zones are not yet covered by this but are likely to be in a future release. New options: empty-server, empty-contact, empty-zones-enable and disable-empty-zone. dig now has a '-q queryname' and '+showsearch' options. host/nslookup now continue (default)/fail on SERVFAIL. dig now warns if 'RA' is not set in the answer when 'RD' was set in the query. host/nslookup skip servers that fail to set 'RA' when 'RD' is set unless a server is explicitly set. Integrate contibuted DLZ code into named. Integrate contibuted IDN code from JPNIC. libbind: corresponds to that from BIND 8.4.7. BIND 9.3.0 BIND 9.3.0 has a number of new features over 9.2, including: DNSSEC is now DS based (RFC 3658). See also RFC 3845, doc/draft/draft-ietf-dnsext-dnssec-*. DNSSEC lookaside validation. check-names is now implemented. rrset-order in more complete. IPv4/IPv6 transition support, dual-stack-servers. IXFR deltas can now be generated when loading master files, ixfr-from-differences. It is now possible to specify the size of a journal, max-journal-size. It is now possible to define a named set of master servers to be used in masters clause, masters. The advertised EDNS UDP size can now be set, edns-udp-size. allow-v6-synthesis has been obsoleted. NOTE: * Zones containing MD and MF will now be rejected. * dig, nslookup name. now report "Not Implemented" as NOTIMP rather than NOTIMPL. This will have impact on scripts that are looking for NOTIMPL. libbind: corresponds to that from BIND 8.4.5. BIND 9.2.0 BIND 9.2.0 has a number of new features over 9.1, including: - The size of the cache can now be limited using the "max-cache-size" option. - The server can now automatically convert RFC1886-style recursive lookup requests into RFC2874-style lookups, when enabled using the new option "allow-v6-synthesis". This allows stub resolvers that support AAAA records but not A6 record chains or binary labels to perform lookups in domains that make use of these IPv6 DNS features. - Performance has been improved. - The man pages now use the more portable "man" macros rather than the "mandoc" macros, and are installed by "make install". - The named.conf parser has been completely rewritten. It now supports "include" directives in more places such as inside "view" statements, and it no longer has any reserved words. - The "rndc status" command is now implemented. - rndc can now be configured automatically. - A BIND 8 compatible stub resolver library is now included in lib/bind. - OpenSSL has been removed from the distribution. This means that to use DNSSEC, OpenSSL must be installed and the --with-openssl option must be supplied to configure. This does not apply to the use of TSIG, which does not require OpenSSL. - The source distribution now builds on Windows. See win32utils/readme1.txt and win32utils/win32-build.txt for details. This distribution also includes a new lightweight stub resolver library and associated resolver daemon that fully support forward and reverse lookups of both IPv4 and IPv6 addresses. This library is considered experimental and is not a complete replacement for the BIND 8 resolver library. Applications that use the BIND 8 res_* functions to perform DNS lookups or dynamic updates still need to be linked against the BIND 8 libraries. For DNS lookups, they can also use the new "getrrsetbyname()" API. BIND 9.2 is capable of acting as an authoritative server for DNSSEC secured zones. This functionality is believed to be stable and complete except for lacking support for verifications involving wildcard records in secure zones. When acting as a caching server, BIND 9.2 can be configured to perform DNSSEC secure resolution on behalf of its clients. This part of the DNSSEC implementation is still considered experimental. For detailed information about the state of the DNSSEC implementation, see the file doc/misc/dnssec. There are a few known bugs: On some systems, IPv6 and IPv4 sockets interact in unexpected ways. For details, see doc/misc/ipv6. To reduce the impact of these problems, the server no longer listens for requests on IPv6 addresses by default. If you need to accept DNS queries over IPv6, you must specify "listen-on-v6 { any; };" in the named.conf options statement. FreeBSD prior to 4.2 (and 4.2 if running as non-root) and OpenBSD prior to 2.8 log messages like "fcntl(8, F_SETFL, 4): Inappropriate ioctl for device". This is due to a bug in "/dev/random" and impacts the server's DNSSEC support. OS X 10.1.4 (Darwin 5.4), OS X 10.1.5 (Darwin 5.5) and OS X 10.2 (Darwin 6.0) reports errors like "fcntl(3, F_SETFL, 4): Operation not supported by device". This is due to a bug in "/dev/random" and impacts the server's DNSSEC support. --with-libtool does not work on AIX. A bug in some versions of the Microsoft DNS server can cause zone transfers from a BIND 9 server to a W2K server to fail. For details, see the "Zone Transfers" section in doc/misc/migration. For a detailed list of user-visible changes from previous releases, see the CHANGES file. Building BIND 9 currently requires a UNIX system with an ANSI C compiler, basic POSIX support, and a 64 bit integer type. We've had successful builds and tests on the following systems: COMPAQ Tru64 UNIX 5.1B Fedora Core 6 FreeBSD 4.10, 5.2.1, 6.2 HP-UX 11.11 Mac OS X 10.5 NetBSD 3.x and 4.0-beta OpenBSD 3.3 and up Solaris 8, 9, 9 (x86), 10 Ubuntu 7.04, 7.10 Windows XP/2003/2008 NOTE: As of BIND 9.5.1, 9.4.3, and 9.3.6, older versions of Windows, including Windows NT and Windows 2000, are no longer supported. We have recent reports from the user community that a supported version of BIND will build and run on the following systems: AIX 4.3, 5L CentOS 4, 4.5, 5 Darwin 9.0.0d1/ARM Debian 4 Fedora Core 5, 7 FreeBSD 6.1 HP-UX 11.23 PA MacOS X 10.4, 10.5 Red Hat Enterprise Linux 4, 5 SCO OpenServer 5.0.6 Slackware 9, 10 SuSE 9, 10 To build, just ./configure make Do not use a parallel "make". Several environment variables that can be set before running configure will affect compilation: CC The C compiler to use. configure tries to figure out the right one for supported systems. CFLAGS C compiler flags. Defaults to include -g and/or -O2 as supported by the compiler. STD_CINCLUDES System header file directories. Can be used to specify where add-on thread or IPv6 support is, for example. Defaults to empty string. STD_CDEFINES Any additional preprocessor symbols you want defined. Defaults to empty string. Possible settings: Change the default syslog facility of named/lwresd. -DISC_FACILITY=LOG_LOCAL0 Enable DNSSEC signature chasing support in dig. -DDIG_SIGCHASE=1 (sets -DDIG_SIGCHASE_TD=1 and -DDIG_SIGCHASE_BU=1) Disable dropping queries from particular well known ports. -DNS_CLIENT_DROPPORT=0 Sibling glue checking in named-checkzone is enabled by default. To disable the default check set. -DCHECK_SIBLING=0 named-checkzone checks out-of-zone addresses by default. To disable this default set. -DCHECK_LOCAL=0 To create the default pid files in ${localstatedir}/run rather than ${localstatedir}/run/{named,lwresd}/ set. -DNS_RUN_PID_DIR=0 Enable workaround for Solaris kernel bug about /dev/poll -DISC_SOCKET_USE_POLLWATCH=1 The watch timeout is also configurable, e.g., -DISC_SOCKET_POLLWATCH_TIMEOUT=20 LDFLAGS Linker flags. Defaults to empty string. The following need to be set when cross compiling. BUILD_CC The native C compiler. BUILD_CFLAGS (optional) BUILD_CPPFLAGS (optional) Possible Settings: -DNEED_OPTARG=1 (optarg is not declared in <unistd.h>) BUILD_LDFLAGS (optional) BUILD_LIBS (optional) To build shared libraries, specify "--with-libtool" on the configure command line. For the server to support DNSSEC, you need to build it with crypto support. You must have OpenSSL 0.9.5a or newer installed and specify "--with-openssl" on the configure command line. If OpenSSL is installed under a nonstandard prefix, you can tell configure where to look for it using "--with-openssl=/prefix". On some platforms it is necessary to explictly request large file support to handle files bigger than 2GB. This can be done by "--enable-largefile" on the configure command line. On some platforms, BIND 9 can be built with multithreading support, allowing it to take advantage of multiple CPUs. You can specify whether to build a multithreaded BIND 9 by specifying "--enable-threads" or "--disable-threads" on the configure command line. The default is operating system dependent. Support for the "fixed" rrset-order option can be enabled or disabled by specifying "--enable-fixed-rrset" or "--disable-fixed-rrset" on the configure command line. The default is "disabled", to reduce memory footprint. If your operating system has integrated support for IPv6, it will be used automatically. If you have installed KAME IPv6 separately, use "--with-kame[=PATH]" to specify its location. "make install" will install "named" and the various BIND 9 libraries. By default, installation is into /usr/local, but this can be changed with the "--prefix" option when running "configure". You may specify the option "--sysconfdir" to set the directory where configuration files like "named.conf" go by default, and "--localstatedir" to set the default parent directory of "run/named.pid". For backwards compatibility with BIND 8, --sysconfdir defaults to "/etc" and --localstatedir defaults to "/var" if no --prefix option is given. If there is a --prefix option, sysconfdir defaults to "$prefix/etc" and localstatedir defaults to "$prefix/var". To see additional configure options, run "configure --help". Note that the help message does not reflect the BIND 8 compatibility defaults for sysconfdir and localstatedir. If you're planning on making changes to the BIND 9 source, you should also "make depend". If you're using Emacs, you might find "make tags" helpful. If you need to re-run configure please run "make distclean" first. This will ensure that all the option changes take. Building with gcc is not supported, unless gcc is the vendor's usual compiler (e.g. the various BSD systems, Linux). Known compiler issues: * gcc-3.2.1 and gcc-3.1.1 is known to cause problems with solaris-x86. * gcc prior to gcc-3.2.3 ultrasparc generates incorrect code at -02. * gcc-3.3.5 powerpc generates incorrect code at -02. * Irix, MipsPRO 7.4.1m is known to cause problems. A limited test suite can be run with "make test". Many of the tests require you to configure a set of virtual IP addresses on your system, and some require Perl; see bin/tests/system/README for details. SunOS 4 requires "printf" to be installed to make the shared libraries. sh-utils-1.16 provides a "printf" which compiles on SunOS 4. Documentation The BIND 9 Administrator Reference Manual is included with the source distribution in DocBook XML and HTML format, in the doc/arm directory. Some of the programs in the BIND 9 distribution have man pages in their directories. In particular, the command line options of "named" are documented in /bin/named/named.8. There is now also a set of man pages for the lwres library. If you are upgrading from BIND 8, please read the migration notes in doc/misc/migration. If you are upgrading from BIND 4, read doc/misc/migration-4to9. Frequently asked questions and their answers can be found in FAQ.
