BIND is the popular implementation of a DNS server, developer
interfaces, and DNS tools.
BIND 10 is a rewrite of BIND 9. BIND 10 is written in C++ and Python
</p><p>
This guide covers the experimental prototype of
BIND 10 version 20120405.

BIND 10 builds have been tested on Debian GNU/Linux 5 and unstable,
Ubuntu 9.10, NetBSD 5, Solaris 10, FreeBSD 7 and 8, CentOS
Linux 5.3, and MacOS 10.6.
and, of course, DNS. These include detailed developer
documentation and code examples.

Incoming zones are transferred using the <span class="command"><strong>b10-xfrin</strong></span>

In the current development release of BIND 10, incoming zone

that is, they don't work for an in-memory data source.

Within BIND 10, a message is logged through a component
called a "logger". Different parts of BIND 10 log messages

Each logger in the system has a name, the name being that

if you want to configure logging for the resolver module,
