The Berkeley Internet Name Domain (BIND) has been updated to version 9.10. This version adds IPv6 listening by default. It also unifies external and internal libraries so that external applications can use the same libraries as BIND daemons. The version 3 XML schema, which provides faster parsing, is no longer optional.

BIND 9.10

The Berkeley Internet Name Domain (BIND) has been updated to version 9.10. This version adds IPv6 listening by default. It also unifies external and internal libraries so that external applications can use the same libraries as BIND daemons. The version 3 XML schema, which provides faster parsing, is no longer optional.
