That's just an assumption. In the last decade I had enough systems where this was not the case. Authorative nameserver and local resolver are two fundamentally different services, it's just a coincidence that they're often provided by the same deamon. > So while not really a hard dependency (it can be avoided by having a second > recheable DNS at hand or by forcing IPs instead of names in the NFS client > config) it's probably a strong "nice to have". No, a clean design would be having two separate services, which just *may* be provided by the same daemon. cu -- ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Enrico Weigelt, metux IT service -- http://www.metux.de/ phone: +49 36207 519931 email: weig...@metux.de mobile: +49 151 27565287 icq: 210169427 skype: nekrad666 ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Embedded-Linux / Portierung / Opensource-QM / Verteilte Systeme ---------------------------------------------------------------------- -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-devel-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
