BIND version 9 was written from scratch and now has a security record comparable to other modern DNS software.

In the mid-1980s, DEC employees took over BIND development, releasing versions 4. 9 and 4. 9. 1.

One of these employees, Paul Vixie, continued to work on BIND after leaving DEC. BIND Version 4. 9. 2 was sponsored by Vixie Enterprises.

He eventually helped start the ISC, which became the entity responsible for BIND versions starting with 4. 9. 3.

Other important features of BIND 9 include: TSIG, nsupdate, IPv6, rndc ( remote name daemon control ), views, multiprocessor support, and an improved portability architecture.

The development of BIND 9 took place under a combination of commercial and military contracts.

Most of the features of BIND 9 were funded by UNIX vendors who wanted to ensure that BIND stayed competitive with Microsoft's DNS offerings ; the DNSSEC features were funded by the US military, which regarded DNS security as important.

While earlier versions of BIND offered no mechanism to store and retrieve zone data in anything other than flat text files, in 2007 BIND 9. 4 DLZ made available ( as a compile-time option ) zone storage in a variety of database formats including LDAP, Berkeley DB, PostgreSQL, MySQL, and ODBC.

BIND 9 was a complete rewrite, in part to mitigate these ongoing security issues.

The hijacking was made possible using a DNS cache poisoning attack, exploiting a security vulnerability in versions of BIND earlier than 4. 9. 6.

As of 2004, it was the fourth most popular DNS server ( counting BIND version 9 separately from versions 8 and 4 ) for the publication of DNS data.

For example, versions of BIND 9. 5. 0-P1 and above perform these checks.

BIND was ported to the Windows NT platform in the early 1990s.

BIND was widely distributed, especially on Unix systems, and is the dominant DNS software in use on the Internet.

BIND was first released with Berkeley Software Distribution 4. 3BSD, and as such, it is free and open source software.

BIND was written by Douglas Terry, Mark Painter, David Riggle and Songnian Zhou in the early 1980s at the University of California, Berkeley as a result of a DARPA grant.

BIND 8 was released by ISC in May 1997.

It was written from scratch in part to address the architectural difficulties with auditing the earlier BIND code bases, and also to support DNSSEC ( DNS Security Extensions ).

Most notably, the Internet Systems Consortium announced that it had produced a version of the BIND DNS software that could be configured by Internet service providers to filter out wildcard DNS from certain domains ; this software was deployed by a number of ISPs.

ISC was originally founded in 1994 as Internet Software Consortium, Inc., to continue the work of maintaining and enhancing BIND following the footsteps of CSRG at U. C. Berkeley, Digital Equipment Corp., and Vixie Enterprises.

Some sources claim that the DNS server implementation in Windows NT 3. 51 was a fork of ISC's BIND version 4. 3, but this is not true.

This format was originally used by the Berkeley Internet Name Domain ( BIND ) software package, but has been widely adopted by other DNS server software-though some of them ( e. g. NSD, PowerDNS ) are using the zone files only as a starting point to compile them into database format, see also Microsoft DNS with Active Directory-database integration.

In 1984, four Berkeley students — Douglas Terry, Mark Painter, David Riggle, and Songnian Zhou — wrote the first Unix implementation, called The Berkeley Internet Name Domain ( BIND ) Server.

Mike Karels, Phil Almquist, and Paul Vixie have maintained BIND since then.

With the heavy use and resulting scrutiny of its open-source code, as well as increasingly more sophisticated attack methods, many security flaws were discovered in BIND.

BIND (), or named (), is the most widely used DNS software on the Internet.

, the Internet Systems Consortium maintains, updates, and writes new versions of BIND.

The acronym BIND is for Berkeley Internet Name Domain, from a technical paper published in 1984.

Versions of BIND through 4. 8. 3 were maintained by the Computer Systems Research Group ( CSRG ) at UC Berkeley.

The matter was considered and reconsidered, and finally opposed, but in spite of many objections, the Court granted a charter on January 9, 1792.

On December 9, 1862, Sergeant Edwin H. Fay, an unusual Louisianan who held A.B. and M.A. degrees from Harvard University and who before the war was headmaster of a private school for boys in Louisiana, wrote his wife: `` I saw Pemberton and he is the most insignificant puke I ever saw.

On April 9, Lee surrendered to Grant at Appomattox and the war was effectively over.

When the Confederate attempt to defend Petersburg failed, the Confederate army retreated but was pursued and defeated, which resulted in Lee's surrender to Grant at Appomattox Court House on April 9, 1865.

However, Aaron's snake ate up all the other snakes ( Exodus 7: 9 ) proving his rod was victorious.

) At the intercession of Moses, Aaron was saved from the plague which smote the people ( Deuteronomy 9: 20, Exodus 32: 35 ), although it was against Aaron ’ s tribe of Levi that the work of punitive vengeance was committed ( Exodus 32: 26 ).

Industrial output was relatively positive throughout 2010, with year-on-year average growth of 10. 9 percent in the period January to September 2010, due largely to the mining sector where higher global demand for commodities led to higher prices.

There was a 43. 9 percent increase in overall exports during the January to September period.

It was Doubleday's finest performance during the war, five hours leading 9, 500 men against ten Confederate brigades that numbered more than 16, 000.
