I discovered a third today. A user is allowed to enter a string as a A
record (say nysupport) instead of the required IPv4 address. Bind will
refuse to start with such zone file, and instead report an error like
this:
Aug 14 12:49:58 tjener named[3342]: dns_rdata_fromtext:
/etc/bind/db.intern:114: near 'nysupport': bad dotted quad
Aug 14 12:49:58 tjener named[3342]: zone intern/IN: loading from
master file /etc/bind/db.intern failed: bad dotted quad
Aug 14 12:49:58 tjener named[3342]: zone intern/IN: not loaded due to
errors.
