Well, I am conversant with BIND and djbdns. I know their different
styles of behaviour, configuration and I have an idea of what they can
take and what they need when serving thousands of zones as authoritative
servers or handling 24,000 queries per second as caching servers (NO,
BIND does not cut it). I have setup 'stealth' masters with slaves doing
the actual authoritative work with BIND. I have used BIND's INCLUDE
directive to allow me to just update one file to update the MX records
of thousands of zones. Just the basic stuff really that BIND admins on
this list do everyday.
What were you trying to achieve again? Nobody can help you unless you
help us help you.
