It is also fast, relatively easy to setup, and supposedly performs quite a bit better than BIND.<BR/><BR/>On the minus side, djb is a crank, doesn't follow RFCs, and the software has a more restrictive license than GPL. The minuses will have more or less weight depending on the user.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4088979.post-1158355599182523782006-09-15T17:26:00.000-04:002006-09-15T17:26:00.000-04:00Re: djbdns: no comment.Re: security, I haven't don...Re: djbdns: no comment.<BR/><BR/>Re: security, I haven't done a code audit.<BR/><BR/>Bamm: Dnsmasq is only using the /etc/hosts and /etc/resolv.conf file on the box where it's running.
