BIND Is Most Popular DNS Server

    Please explain how you managed to fingerprint DNS servers. I don't think many DNS servers have version identification fetures. BIND does but it's not exactly a standard. ...or maybe even a good idea.

    This surey ranks up there with "Most dentists recommend brand X" marketing for me. The accuracy of the sample set is extremely questionable.
