	             BIND 9.7.0b1 is now available.

	BIND 9.7.0b1 is the first beta release of BIND 9.7.0.

Overview:

	BIND 9.7 includes a number of changes from BIND 9.6 and earlier
	releases.  Most are intended to simplify DNSSEC configuration
	and operation.

New features include:

	- Fully automatic signing of zones by "named"
	- Simplified configuration of DNSSEC Lookaside Validation (DLV).
	- Simplified configuration of Dynamic DNS, using the "ddns-confgen"
	  command line tool or the "local" update-policy option.  (As a side
	  effect, this also makes it easier to configure automatic zone
	  re-signing.)
	- New named option "attach-cache" that allows multiple views to
	  share a single cache.
	- DNS rebinding attack prevention.
	- New default values for dnssec-keygen parameters.
	- Support for RFC 5011 automated trust anchor maintenance
	  (see README.rfc5011 for additional details).
	- Smart signing: simplified tools for zone signing and key
	  maintenance.
	- The "statistics-channels" option is now available on Windows.
	- A new DNSSEC-aware libdns API for use by non-BIND9 applications
	  (see README.libdns for details).
	- On some platforms, named and other binaries can now print out
	  a stack backtrace an assertion failure, to aid in debugging.
	- A "tools only" installation mode on Windows, which only installs
	  dig, host, nslookup and nsupdate.
	- Improved PKCS#11 support, including Keyper support and explicit
          OpenSSL engine selection (see README.pkcs11 for additional details).

	Warning: If you had built BIND 9.6 with any of ALLOW_NSEC3PARAM_UPDATE,
	ALLOW_SECURE_TO_INSECURE or ALLOW_INSECURE_TO_SECURE defined then
	you should ensure that all changes that are in progress have completed
	prior to upgrading to BIND 9.7.  BIND 9.7 is not backwards compatible.

Changes since 9.6.0:

	--- 9.7.0b1 released ---

2715.	[bug]		Require OpenSSL support to be explicitly disabled.
			[RT #20288]

2714.	[port]		aix/powerpc: 'asm("ics");' needs non standard assembler
			flags.

2713.	[bug]		powerpc: atomic operations missing asm("ics") /
			__isync() calls.

2712.	[func]		New 'auto-dnssec' zone option allows zone signing
			to be fully automated in zones configured for
			dynamic DNS.  'auto-dnssec allow;' permits a zone
			to be signed by creating keys for it in the
			key-directory and using 'rndc sign <zone>'.
			'auto-dnssec maintain;' allows that too, plus it
			also keeps the zone's DNSSEC keys up to date
			according to their timing metadata. [RT #19943]
			
2711.	[port]		win32: Add the bin/pkcs11 tools into the full
			build. [RT #20372]

2710.	[func]		New 'dnssec-signzone -x' flag and 'dnskey-ksk-only'
			zone option cause a zone to be signed with only KSKs
			signing the DNSKEY RRset, not ZSKs.  This reduces
			the size of a DNSKEY answer.  [RT #20340]

2709.	[func]		Added some data fields, currently unused, to the
			private key file format, to allow implementation
			of explicit key rollover in a future release
			without impairing backward or forward compatibility.
			[RT #20310]

2708.	[func]		Insecure to secure and NSEC3 parameter changes via
			update are now fully supported and no longer require
			defines to enable.  We now no longer overload the
			NSEC3PARAM flag field, nor the NSEC OPT bit at the
			apex.  Secure to insecure changes are controlled by
			by the named.conf option 'secure-to-insecure'.

			Warning: If you had previously enabled support by
			adding defines at compile time to BIND 9.6 you should
			ensure that all changes that are in progress have
			completed prior to upgrading to BIND 9.7.  BIND 9.7
			is not backwards compatible.

2707.	[func]		dnssec-keyfromlabel no longer require engine name
			to be specified in the label if there is a default
			engine or the -E option has been used.  Also, it
			now uses default algorithms as dnssec-keygen does
			(i.e., RSASHA1, or NSEC3RSASHA1 if -3 is used).
			[RT #20371]

2706.	[bug]		Loading a zone with a very large NSEC3 salt could
			trigger an assert. [RT #20368]

2705.	[placeholder]

2704.	[bug]		Serial of dynamic and stub zones could be inconsistent
			with their SOA serial.  [RT #19387]

2703.	[func]		Introduce an OpenSSL "engine" argument with -E
			for all binaries which can take benefit of
			crypto hardware. [RT #20230]

2702.	[func]		Update PKCS#11 tools (bin/pkcs11) [RT #20225 & all]

2701.	[doc]		Correction to ARM: hmac-md5 is no longer the only
			supported TSIG key algorithm. [RT #18046]

2700.	[doc]		The match-mapped-addresses option is discouraged.
			[RT #12252]

2699.	[bug]		Missing lock in rbtdb.c. [RT #20037]

2698.	[placeholder]

2697.	[port]		win32: ensure that S_IFMT, S_IFDIR, S_IFCHR and
			S_IFREG are defined after including <isc/stat.h>.
			[RT #20309]

2696.	[bug]		named failed to successfully process some valid
			acl constructs. [RT #20308]

2695.	[func]		DHCP/DDNS - update fdwatch code for use by
			DHCP.  Modify the api to isc_sockfdwatch_t (the
			callback funciton for isc_socket_fdwatchcreate)
			to include information about the direction (read
			or write) and add isc_socket_fdwatchpoke.
			[RT #20253]

2694.	[bug]		Reduce default NSEC3 iterations from 100 to 10.
			[RT #19970]

2693.	[port]		Add some noreturn attributes. [RT #20257]

2692.	[port]		win32: 32/64 bit cleanups. [RT #20335]

2691.	[func]		dnssec-signzone: retain the existing NSEC or NSEC3
			chain when re-signing a previously-signed zone.
			Use -u to modify NSEC3 parameters or switch
			between NSEC and NSEC3. [RT #20304]

2690.	[bug]		win32: fix isc_thread_key_getspecific() prototype.
			[RT #20315]

2689.	[bug]		Correctly handle snprintf result. [RT #20306]

2688.	[bug]		Use INTERFACE_F_POINTTOPOINT, not IFF_POINTOPOINT,
			to decide to fetch the destination address. [RT #20305]

2687.	[bug]		Fixed dnssec-signzone -S handling of revoked keys.
			Also, added warnings when revoking a ZSK, as this is
			not defined by protocol (but is legal).  [RT #19943]

2686.	[bug]		dnssec-signzone should clean the old NSEC chain when
			signing with NSEC3 and vice versa. [RT #20301]

2685.	[contrib]	Update contrib/zkt to version 0.99c. [RT #20054]

2684.	[cleanup]	dig: formalize +ad and +cd as synonyms for
			+adflag and +cdflag.  [RT #19305]

2683.	[bug]		dnssec-signzone should clean out old NSEC3 chains when
			the NSEC3 parameters used to sign the zone change.
			[RT #20246]

2682.	[bug]		"configure --enable-symtable=all" failed to
			build. [RT #20282]

2681.	[bug]		IPSECKEY RR of gateway type 3 was not correctly
			decoded. [RT #20269]

2680.	[func]		Move contrib/pkcs11-keygen to bin/pkcs11. [RT #20067]

2679.	[func]		dig -k can now accept TSIG keys in named.conf
			format.  [RT #20031]

2678.	[func]		Treat DS queries as if "minimal-response yes;"
			was set. [RT #20258]

2677.	[func]		Changes to key metadata behavior:
			- Keys without "publish" or "active" dates set will
			  no longer be used for smart signing.  However,
			  those dates will be set to "now" by default when
			  a key is created; to generate a key but not use
			  it yet, use dnssec-keygen -G.
			- New "inactive" date (dnssec-keygen/settime -I)
			  sets the time when a key is no longer used for
			  signing but is still published.
			- The "unpublished" date (-U) is deprecated in
			  favor of "deleted" (-D).
			[RT #20247]

2676.	[bug]		--with-export-installdir should have been
			--with-export-includedir. [RT #20252]

2675.	[bug]		dnssec-signzone could crash if the key directory
                        did not exist. [RT #20232]

	--- 9.7.0a3 released ---

2674.	[bug]		"dnssec-lookaside auto;" crashed if named was built
			without openssl. [RT #20231]

2673.	[bug]		The managed-keys.bind zone file could fail to
			load due to a spurious result from sync_keyzone()
			[RT #20045]

2672.	[bug]		Don't enable searching in 'host' when doing reverse
			lookups. [RT #20218]

2671.	[bug]		Add support for PKCS#11 providers not returning
			the public exponent in RSA private keys
			(OpenCryptoki for instance) in
			dnssec-keyfromlabel. [RT #19294]

2670.	[bug]		Unexpected connect failures failed to log enough
			information to be useful. [RT #20205]

2669.	[func]		Update PKCS#11 support to support Keyper HSM.
			Update PKCS#11 patch to be against openssl-0.9.8i.

2668.	[func]		Several improvements to dnssec-* tools, including:
			- dnssec-keygen and dnssec-settime can now set key
			  metadata fields 0 (to unset a value, use "none")
			- dnssec-revoke sets the revocation date in
			  addition to the revoke bit
			- dnssec-settime can now print individual metadata
			  fields instead of always printing all of them,
			  and can print them in unix epoch time format for
			  use by scripts
			[RT #19942]

2667.	[func]		Add support for logging stack backtrace on assertion
			failure (not available for all platforms). [RT #19780]

2666.	[func]		Added an 'options' argument to dns_name_fromstring()
			(API change from 9.7.0a2). [RT #20196]

2665.	[func]		Clarify syntax for managed-keys {} statement, add
			ARM documentation about RFC 5011 support. [RT #19874]

2664.	[bug]		create_keydata() and minimal_update() in zone.c
			didn't properly check return values for some
			functions.  [RT #19956]

2663.	[func]		win32:  allow named to run as a service using
			"NT AUTHORITY\LocalService" as the account. [RT #19977]

2662.	[bug]		lwres_getipnodebyname() and lwres_getipnodebyaddr()
			returned a misleading error code when lwresd was
			down. [RT #20028]

2661.	[bug]		Check whether socket fd exceeds FD_SETSIZE when
			creating lwres context. [RT #20029]

2660.	[func]		Add a new set of DNS libraries for non-BIND9
			applications.  See README.libdns. [RT #19369]

2659.	[doc]		Clarify dnssec-keygen doc: key name must match zone
			name for DNSSEC keys. [RT #19938]

2658.	[bug]		dnssec-settime and dnssec-revoke didn't process
			key file paths correctly. [RT #20078]

2657.	[cleanup]	Lower "journal file <path> does not exist, creating it"
			log level to debug 1. [RT #20058]

2656.	[func]		win32: add a "tools only" check box to the installer
			which causes it to only install dig, host, nslookup,
			nsupdate and relevant DLLs.  [RT #19998]

2655.	[doc]		Document that key-directory does not affect
			bind.keys, rndc.key or session.key.  [RT #20155]

2654.	[bug]		Improve error reporting on duplicated names for
			deny-answer-xxx. [RT #20164]

2653.	[bug]		Treat ENGINE_load_private_key() failures as key
			not found rather than out of memory.  [RT #18033]

2652.	[func]		Provide more detail about what record is being
			deleted. [RT #20061]

2651.	[bug]		Dates could print incorrectly in K*.key files on
			64-bit systems. [RT #20076]

2650.	[bug]		Assertion failure in dnssec-signzone when trying

2643.	[bug]		Stub zones interacted badly with NSEC3 support.
			[RT #19777]

2642.	[bug]		nsupdate could dump core on solaris when reading
			improperly formatted key files.  [RT #20015]

2641.	[bug]		Fixed an error in parsing update-policy syntax,
			added a regression test to check it. [RT #20007]

2640.	[security]	A specially crafted update packet will cause named

			dnssec-* tools.  Major changes:
			- all dnssec-* tools now take a -K option to
			  specify a directory in which key files will be
			  stored
			- DNSSEC can now store metadata indicating when
			  they are scheduled to be published, activated,
			  revoked or removed; these values can be set by
			  dnssec-keygen or overwritten by the new
			  dnssec-settime command
			- dnssec-signzone -S (for "smart") option reads key
			  metadata and uses it to determine automatically
			  which keys to publish to the zone, use for
			  signing, revoke, or remove from the zone
			[RT #19816]

2635.	[bug]		isc_inet_ntop() incorrectly handled 0.0/16 addresses.

			[RT #19926 ]

2630.	[func]		Improved syntax for DDNS autoconfiguration:  use
			"update-policy local;" to switch on local DDNS in a
			zone. (The "ddns-autoconf" option has been removed.)
                        [RT #19875]

2629.	[port]		Check for seteuid()/setegid(), use setresuid()/
			setresgid() if not present. [RT #19932]

2621.	[doc]		Made copyright boilterplate consistent.  [RT #19833]

2620.	[bug]		Delay thawing the zone until the reload of it has
			completed successfully.  [RT #19750]

2619.	[func]		Add support for RFC 5011, automatic trust anchor
			maintenance.  The new "managed-keys" statement can
			be used in place of "trusted-keys" for zones which
			support this protocol.  (Note: this syntax is
			expected to change prior to 9.7.0 final.) [RT #19248]

2618.	[bug]		The sdb and sdlz db_interator_seek() methods could
			loop infinitely. [RT #19847]

2617.	[bug]		ifconfig.sh failed to emit an error message when
			run from the wrong location. [RT #19375]

2616.	[bug]		'host' used the nameservers from resolv.conf even
			when a explicit nameserver was specified. [RT #19852]

2615.	[bug]		"__attribute__((unused))" was in the wrong place
			for ia64 gcc builds. [RT #19854]

2614.	[port]		win32: 'named -v' should automatically be executed
			in the foreground. [RT #19844]

2613.	[placeholder]

	--- 9.7.0a1 released ---

2612.	[func]		Add default values for the arguments to
			dnssec-keygen.  Without arguments, it will now
			generate a 1024-bit RSASHA1 zone-signing key,
			or with the -f KSK option, a 2048-bit RSASHA1
			key-signing key. [RT #19300]

2611.	[func]		Add -l option to dnssec-dsfromkey to generate
			DLV records instead of DS records. [RT #19300]

2610.	[port]		sunos: Change #2363 was not complete. [RT #19796]

2609.	[func]		Simplify the configuration of dynamic zones:
			- add ddns-confgen command to generate
			  configuration text for named.conf
			- add zone option "ddns-autoconf yes;", which
			  causes named to generate a TSIG session key
			  and allow updates to the zone using that key
			- add '-l' (localhost) option to nsupdate, which
			  causes nsupdate to connect to a locally-running
			  named process using the session key generated
			  by named
			[RT #19284]

2608.	[func]		Perform post signing verification checks in
			dnssec-signzone.  These can be disabled with -P.

			The post sign verification test ensures that for each
			algorithm in use there is at least one non revoked
			self signed KSK key.  That all revoked KSK keys are
			self signed.  That all records in the zone are signed
			by the algorithm.  [RT #19653]

2607.	[bug]		named could incorrectly delete NSEC3 records for
			empty nodes when processing a update request.
			[RT #19749]

			[RT # 19296]

2604.	[func]		Add support for DNS rebinding attack prevention through
			new options, deny-answer-addresses and
			deny-answer-aliases.  Based on contributed code from
			JD Nurmi, Google. [RT #18192]

2603.	[port]		win32: handle .exe extension of named-checkzone and
			named-comilezone argv[0] names under windows.
			[RT #19767]

2602.	[port]		win32: fix debugging command line build of libisccfg.
			[RT #19767]

2601.	[doc]		Mention file creation mode mask in the
			named manual page.

2600.	[doc]		ARM: miscellaneous reformatting for different
			page widths. [RT #19574]

2599.	[bug]		Address rapid memory growth when validation fails.
			[RT #19654]

2598.	[func]		Reserve the -F flag. [RT #19657]

2597.	[bug]		Handle a validation failure with a insecure delegation
			from a NSEC3 signed master/slave zone.  [RT #19464]

2596.	[bug]		Stale tree nodes of cache/dynamic rbtdb could stay
			long, leading to inefficient memory usage or rejecting
			newer cache entries in the worst case. [RT #19563]

2595.	[bug]		Fix unknown extended rcodes in dig. [RT #19625]

2594.	[func]		Have rndc warn if using its default configuration
			file when the key file also exists. [RT #19424]

2593.	[bug]		Improve a corner source of SERVFAILs [RT #19632]

2592.	[bug]		Treat "any" as a type in nsupdate. [RT #19455]

2591.	[bug]		named could die when processing a update in
			removed_orphaned_ds(). [RT #19507]

2590.	[func]		Report zone/class of "update with no effect".
			[RT #19542]

2589.	[bug]		dns_db_unregister() failed to clear '*dbimp'.
			[RT #19626]

2588.	[bug]		SO_REUSEADDR could be set unconditionally after failure
			of bind(2) call.  This should be rare and mostly
			harmless, but may cause interference with other
			processes that happen to use the same port. [RT #19642]

2587.	[func]		Improve logging by reporting serial numbers for
			when zone serial has gone backwards or unchanged.
			[RT #19506]

2586.	[bug]		Missing cleanup of SIG rdataset in searching a DLZ DB
			or SDB. [RT #19577]

2585.	[bug]		Uninitialized socket name could be referenced via a
			statistics channel, triggering an assertion failure in
			XML rendering. [RT #19427]

2584.	[bug]		alpha: gcc optimization could break atomic operations.
			[RT #19227]

2583.	[port]		netbsd: provide a control to not add the compile
			date to the version string, -DNO_VERSION_DATE.

2582.	[bug]		Don't emit warning log message when we attempt to
			remove non-existant journal. [RT #19516]

2581.	[contrib]	dlz/mysql set MYSQL_OPT_RECONNECT option on connection.
			Requires MySQL 5.0.19 or later. [RT #19084]

2580.	[bug]		UpdateRej statistics counter could be incremented twice
			for one rejection. [RT #19476]

2579.	[bug]		DNSSEC lookaside validation failed to handle unknown
