DNS and BIND Just received this item, planned on using for reference material. Haven't gotten to read it yet though...
Good but dated... Most all if not all of the principles covered in this book are current although BIND 9.1 is NOT. BIND is at 9.5 now. There is a fifth edition out that is more current. Unless they discount this heavily, I'd pass.
Great Resource This book is a good in-depth resource for anyone who wants a very comprehensive understanding of DNS hosting and troubleshooting. You can use it as a reference, reading sections as you need them, or read it cover to cover. I've opted for the former and am about half-way through. So, far I've read about things I've never been able to find good information for on the web. Keep up the good work!
By far the best DNS introduction This book is the best investment I have made in my knowledge of DNS. I think any network admin should have this book on their desk at all times. It should become a bed side reading for anybody who is serious about TCP/IP protocols. DNS may be a pretty tricky topic to understand for many people. It uses both TCP and UDP for its queries and gets pretty convoluted as you dive into it. This books demystifies it very well. There is a very clear distinction between zones and domains. I have not seen that many materials clearly explaining the difference between the two. The book gives you a taste of what threats you may face running a DNS server. It explains how to perform zone transfers and zone delegations and clearly defines which suite of protocols is used to accomplish it.
This book can be a reference as well as a textbook read. I recommend it to all people out on the internet.
This is the reference manual for DNS/BIND If you work with DNS/BIND for a living, you either already have this book, or know someone you can borrow it from. It's the one to own.
