Pro DNS and BIND 10 starts with simple concepts, then moves on to full security-aware DNSSEC configurations. You can treat the book as a simple paint-by-numbers guide to everything from a simple caching DNS
a good source for reference RoTor There is nothing to be found conncerning BIND 10 in this book.But, I still like this book due to its comprehensiveness.I use it as a source for reference.This could - by the way - also be done from this books' predecessor.Compared to this book several things have been changed, but in total it is only a revised version.I would have appreciated this book to follow a more didactical approach (e.g starting with a simple example and 'improving' it)To me it looks like a bunch of several technical terms collected altogether to have them in one single book.. jlh-san-diego said BIND 10 - NOT in this book!!!. This book is incorrectly titled with the latest version of BIND, which it does NOT cover. I waited for this book to ship for well over a month, and now it arrives with a caveat on the cover that it covers up to version 9.7. That wasn't on the image of the cover page when I purchased the book. If you are looking for a reference on BIND 10, you will have to look elsewhere.. Bob Friesenhahn said An excellent book about DNS and BIND 9.X. BIND and the protocols/formats it supports are very complex. This book does a great job of describing how DNS works, how to create the files used by BIND, and how to run BIND. It can not possibly cover BIND 10 since BIND 10 was released several years after the book was written. However, it does a great job of describing the BIND 9.X versions which are currently very much in use. Hopefully the second edition will appear which actually covers BIND 10 since BIND 10 adds many new features.
