Add a -devel port for 9.8.0a1, which will allow people to experiment
with DNS64. Once 9.8.0 is released officially the -devel tag will be
removed.

BIND version 9 is a major rewrite of nearly all aspects of the underlying BIND
architecture.  Some of the important features of BIND 9 are:

DNS Security: DNSSEC (signed zones), TSIG (signed DNS requests)
IP version 6: Answers DNS queries on IPv6 sockets, IPv6 resource records (AAAA)
     Experimental IPv6 Resolver Library
DNS Protocol Enhancements: IXFR, DDNS, Notify, EDNS0
     Improved standards conformance
Views: One server process can provide multiple "views" of the DNS namespace,
     e.g. an "inside" view to certain clients, and an "outside" view to others.
Multiprocessor Support

BIND 9.8 includes a number of changes from BIND 9.7 and earlier releases,
including:
        Preliminary DNS64 support (AAAA synthesis only initially)

See the CHANGES file for more information on features.

libasyncns is a C library for Linux/Unix for executing name service queries
asynchronously. It is an asynchronous wrapper around getaddrinfo(3),
getnameinfo(3), res_query(3) and res_search(3) from libc and libresolv.

In contrast to GNU's asynchronous name resolving API getaddrinfo_a(),
libasyncns does not make use of UNIX signals for reporting completion of name
queries. Instead, the API exports a standard UNIX file descriptor which may be
integerated cleanly into custom main loops.

In contrast to asynchronous DNS resolving libraries like libdenise, skadns,
adns, libasyncns is just an asynchronous wrapper around the libc's synchronous
getaddrinfo() API, which has the advantage of allowing name resolution using
techniques like Multicast DNS, LDAP or NIS using standard libc NSS (Name
Service Switch) modules. libasyncns is compatible with IPv6 if the underlying
libc is.

libasyncns is very tiny, consisting of just one header and one source file. It
has no dependencies besides libc.

The libbind functions have been separated from the BIND suite as of
BIND 9.6.0. Originally from older versions of BIND, they have been
continually maintained and improved but not installed by default with
BIND 9. This standard resolver library contains the same historical
functions and headers included with many Unix operating systems.
In fact, most implementations are based on the same original code.

ISC's libbind provides the standard resolver library, along with header
files and documentation, for communicating with domain name servers,
retrieving network host entries from /etc/hosts or via DNS, converting
CIDR network addresses, performing Hesiod information lookups, retrieving
network entries from /etc/networks, implementing TSIG transaction/request
security of DNS messages, performing name-to-address and address-to-name
translations, and utilizing /etc/resolv.conf for resolver configuration.

Unbound is designed as a set of modular components, so that also
DNSSEC (secure DNS) validation and stub-resolvers (that do not run as
a server, but are linked into an application) are easily possible.

Goals:
    * A validating recursive DNS resolver.
    * Code diversity in the DNS resolver monoculture.
    * Drop-in replacement for BIND apart from config.
    * DNSSEC support.
    * Fully RFC compliant.
    * High performance
          o even with validation.
    * Used as
          o stub resolver.
          o full caching name server.
          o resolver library.
    * Elegant design of validator, resolver, cache modules.
          o provide the ability to pick and choose modules.
    * Robust.
    * In C, open source: The BSD license.
    * Smallest as possible component that does the job.
    * Stub-zones can be configured (local data or AS112 zones).

Non-goals:
    * An authoritative name server.
    * Too many Features.

Net::DNSBL::MultiDaemon is the Perl module that implements the multi_dnsbl
daemon.

multi_dnsbl is a DNS emulator daemon that increases the efficacy of DNSBL
look-ups in a mail system. multi_dnsbl may be used as a stand-alone DNSBL or as
a plug-in for a standard BIND 9 installation. multi_dnsbl shares a common
configuration file format with the Mail::SpamCannibal sc_BLcheck.pl script so
that DNSBL's can be maintained in a common configuration file for an entire
mail installation.

Because DNSBL usefulness is dependent on the nature and source of spam sent to
a specific site and because sometimes DNSBL's may provide intermittant service,
multi_dnsbl interrogates them sorted in the order of greatest successful hits.
DNSBL's that do not respond within the configured timeout period are not
interrogated at all after 6 consecutive failures, and thereafter will be
retried not more often than once every hour until they come back online. This
eliminates the need to place DNSBL's in a particular order in your MTA's config
file or periodically monitor the DNSBL statistics and/or update the MTA config
file.

It allows you to find lame, leaked or stale name servers which have the
potential to cause disruption.

This program is a domain name server analysis and reporting tool.
It checks and reports whether a domain name, hosted by your organization,
is still in use, and if so, reports whether your name servers are
still the delegated name servers of the domain name in question.

dnsjava is an implementation of DNS in Java. It supports all defined record
types (including the DNSSEC types), and unknown types. It can be used for
queries, zone transfers, and dynamic updates. It includes a cache which can be
used by clients, and a minimal implementation of a server. It supports TSIG
authenticated messages, partial DNSSEC verification, and EDNS0.

dnsjava provides functionality above and beyond that of the InetAddress class.
Since it is written in pure Java, dnsjava is fully threadable, and in many
cases is faster than using InetAddress.

dnsjava provides both high and low level access to DNS. The high level
functions perform queries for records of a given name, type, and class, and
return an array of records. There is also a clone of InetAddress, which is even
simpler. A cache is used to reduce the number of DNS queries sent. The low
level functions allow direct manipulation of DNS messages and records, as well
as allowing additional resolver properties to be set.

requests. a print only mode is also supported, allowing one to simply
monitor dns traffic. dns hijacker is an excellent tool for network level
ad blocking / removal.
