Package: bind9 Version: 1:9.2.4-1sarge1 Severity: wishlist Tags: patch It would be great if the stock debian bind9 could support geographical filters as bind views. This would allow you to serve one zone file to clients coming from the US, another to clients from the EU, and a final one to everyone else. One common use of this is to direct clients to servers nearest to them.
A patch to bind 9 is available from http://www.caraytech.com/geodns/ , along with documentation and examples. -- System Information: Debian Release: 3.1 Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.12.2-mb Locale: LANG=C, LC_CTYPE=C (charmap=ANSI_X3.4-1968) Versions of packages bind9 depends on: ii adduser 3.63 Add and remove users and groups ii libc6 2.3.2.ds1-22sarge4 GNU C Library: Shared libraries an ii libdns16 1:9.2.4-1sarge1 DNS Shared Library used by BIND ii libisc7 1:9.2.4-1sarge1 ISC Shared Library used by BIND ii libisccc0 1:9.2.4-1sarge1 Command Channel Library used by BI ii libisccfg0 1:9.2.4-1sarge1 Config File Handling Library used ii liblwres1 1:9.2.4-1sarge1 Lightweight Resolver Library used ii libssl0.9.7 0.9.7e-3sarge4 SSL shared libraries ii netbase 4.21 Basic TCP/IP networking system -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
