BIND 9 has this nice feature to be able to reference every path relative
to an "home directory". The home directory is set in "named.conf" in the
options block:
{{{
options {
directory "/var/named";
};
}}}
This feature really helps to keep a configuration system-independent, so
that it can be moved from one system to another (even to a different
platform with a different file system layout).
All BIND 10 configuration seems to be absolute when it comes to path- and
file-names.
It would be good to have a similar way in BIND 10 to specify a "home
directory" and to specify all path- and file-names relative to that home
directory.
