After a quick inspection seems that maradns has all the features, I rember trying it a year ago and I didn't liked it (maybe it was the zone file format, I don't remember), but it seems it's still in active development and maybe is time to give it a new try. And about pdns, when I looked at it it was only authoritative and I it worked only with RDBMS, I'll try it again. Apart from that, do you think I have to retire the ITP because there are too many DNS servers in Debian? I think that one of the good things in Debian is that you have a lot of alternatives, and if the packages work and are actively maintained ... where is the problem? -- Sergio Talens-Oliag <sto@debian.org> <http://people.debian.org/~sto/> Key fingerprint = 29DF 544F 1BD9 548C 8F15 86EF 6770 052B B8C1 FA69
