Changed Features
This section describes the changed features in BIND 9.2.0.
HP-specific Features
The following lists the HP-specific features incorporated in BIND 9.2.0:
• noforward
This option cannot be specified in Options statement in BIND 9.2.0. Instead
forwarding can be suppressed by including an empty forwarders
sub-statement as shown in the following example:
options {
forwarders {192.249.249.1; };
}
zone “hp.com” {
type slave;
masters { 192.249.249.4; };
file “db.hp”;
forwarders { };
}
This will suppress queries like “foo.india.hp.com” from being forwarded to
nameservers at 192.249.249.1.
NOTE Forwarding to the nameservers available in the delegation information cannot
be suppressed using an empty forwarders sub-statement.
• alias-ip
This option is now no longer supported. Use the “listen-on” option of the
“Options” statement to implement the alias-ip option.
• auth-nxdomain yes/no
If this option is specified as yes, then the AA bit is always set on NX domain
responses, even if the server is not actually authoritative. The default value for
this option has been changed from “yes” to “no”.
