Bind 4 and 8 Vulnerabilities

    Frankly, anyone still using BIND 4 deserves to get rooted.

    Anyone still running BIND 8 should be given a good slap and told to upgrade.

    Anyone running BIND 9, well done.

    That page does not contain the words "subnet" "view" "horizon" or "internal". So that page hardly shows me how. I've just always found the TinyDNS zone format and configuration to be much harder to use than BIND 9.

    I didn't think that:

    emerge djbdns

    was all that hard! But I guess you don't run Gentoo
