Query on issue#2389 BIND 9.16.10

[Rajnish Kamboj]

Thanks Ondrej for your quick reply,

Upgrading to latest release will fix the issue.
Can you also help us with scenarios as to why this issue is occurring?
May be this will help us in quick workaround (if possible) till the time we plan for latest BIND.


Regards
Rajnish Kamboj

Hi,

there were several security issues since 9.16.10, you should be running either last 9.16.x release (9.16.21 as of time writing this email) or have all of the issues patched.

The thing you are asking for is so wrong on so many levels. Don’t do that, upgrade to last version instead.
