Unsupported Features
The following BIND 8.1.2 options are not supported in BIND 9.2.0:
• no-round-robin
This option was used in BIND 8.1.2 to turn off the default round robin, which
cycles returned IP addresses for multi-homed hosts.
• named-xfer
This option is obsolete because it is part of the named binary.
• deallocate-on-exit
This option is no longer in use as the server now always checks for memory
leaks.
• fake-iquery
This option is obsolete and is always set to “no”, thus not allowing to simulate
DNS IQUERY, which is not used in BIND 9.2.0.
• statistics-interval
This option was used in BIND 8.1.2 to log statistics of the nameserver at regular
intervals. The logging consumes a lot of memory and degrades the response
time.
• multiple-cnames
This option was used in BIND 8.1.2 to allow multiple CNAME records in
violation of the DNS standards. BIND 9.2.0 strictly enforces the CNAME rules
both in master files and dynamic updates.
• has-old-clients
This option is now implemented through the “auth-nxdomain yes” and
“rfc2308-type1 no” options.
• treat-cr-as-space
This option was used in BIND 8.1.2 to make the server treat carriage return \r
characters, the same way as a space or tab character, or to facilitate loading of
zone files on a Unix system that were generated on an NT or DOS machine. In
BIND 9.2.0, both Unix “\n” and NT/DOS “\r\n” newlines are always accepted.
• use-id-pool
