Review

"I really tried hard to think of something the book should cover that was not already in between the covers, and other than really esoteric stuff, I failed. This is a book for novice and expert alike, and really does make an essential desktop reference for all those creating, modifying or supporting zone files." Raza Rizvi, news@UK "Verdict - Not quite everything there is to know about running BIND, but pretty close - 9/10" - Chris Denton, Linuxformat, March 2003 The book is slim, handy and so full of excellent advice that within a day of my picking it up I had (using the information in it) upgraded a number of BIND servers from v8 to v9 with almost no outage, implementing the new ?rndc? application in the process. I had also implemented dynamically updating sub-domains for containing SVR records for my employer?s new Windows Server 2003 Active Directory domain. Not a bad advert for an extremely useful book!? ?

Start here for DNS 7 Mar 2010

By Andrew Meredith

Format:Paperback

As is the general rule with O'Reilly books, this work is an excellent reference for the subject at hand. The actually nuts and bolts of DNS can be picked up relatively quickly, but what takes longer is working out the overall strategies. This book gives you fully working, step by step examples of how one would tackle particular scenarios with BIND. Most of the more knowledgeable DNS admins of my acquaintance have a well thumbed copy of this book.

A 'MUST HAVE' for new DNS Administrators 28 Mar 2003

By "dedetmer" - Published on Amazon.com

Format:Paperback

This book has turned out to be the best investment I've made so far in my 20 year IT career. I've always trusted O'Reilly books for their detailed accuracy. However, for the task at hand, I didn't need a book to explain WHY things work... I needed one to tell me how to GET them to work. This book was perfect! It doesn't replace the DNS and BIND, 4th Edition, but is a great compliment... Actually, I'm finding the 4th Edition a perfect compliment to the Cookbook.

A wonderful companion to the BIND book 31 Oct 2002

By Andrew P. Kaplan - Published on Amazon.com

Format:Paperback

Like the BIND book, the DNS and BIND cookbook is an invaluable reference for any DNS/Email/Web admin. This book answers many of the questions raised in the BIND book through numerous illuminating illustrations. It explains the differences between BIND 4, 8 and 9. Plus there's a great section on email and even IPv6

The DNS & BIND cook book coupled with the BIND book are truly the BIND bibles.

Magic bullet for quick DNS fixes/receipies 13 May 2005

By Ubiquitous Geebles - Published on Amazon.com

Format:Paperback

If you need to understand the difference between BIND 9 or Windows AD DNS and BIND 8, this is not the book for you. But if your management decides to tell you about the imporant new product launch on 20 servers in a new domain they just bought and kept under wraps to stun the competition which they need implemented in some novel way that requires a DNS twist, THIS will save you.

It will also save you if you are really a Windows admin, but you need to configure something in BIND. Or if you need to do something in BIND that you haven't done before.

Or if you don't care WHY you have to do task X, Y and then Z to get the desired result, but you need to know HOW? This is your book.

The WHY is in the BIND book from O'Reilly.
