Hello, From what version of bind we won't include the root hints file in named.conf? Since the bind server has been including it inherently.


I could be wrong, but I think that all V9 and even all V8 had this
"feature".

The relevant CHANGES file entry for BIND 9 would seem to be

701. [func]   Root hints are now fully optional.  Class IN
              views use compiled-in hints by default, as
              before.  Non-IN views with no root hints now
              provide authoritative service but not recursion.
              A warning is logged if a view has neither root
              hints nor authoritative data for the root. [RT #696]

which puts it in BIND 9.2 but not in 9.1. I can't find any indication
in the CHANGES files or in my memory that BIND 8 ever had compiled-in
hints.
