4867. [cleanup] Normalize rndc on/off commands (validation,
querylog, serve-stale) so they all accept the
same synonyms for on/off (yes/no, true/false,
enable/disable). Thanks to Tony Finch. [RT #47022]
4750. [func] "rndc managed-keys destroy" shuts down RFC 5011 key
maintenance and deletes the managed-keys database.
If followed by "rndc reconfig" or a server restart,
key maintenance is reinitialized from scratch.
This is primarily intended for testing. [RT #32456]
4708. [cleanup] Legacy Windows builds (i.e. for XP and earlier)
are no longer supported. [RT #45186]
4707. [func] The lightweight resolver daemon and library (lwresd
and liblwres) have been removed. [RT #45186]
4706. [func] Code implementing name server query processing has
been moved from bin/named to a new library "libns".
Functions remaining in bin/named are now prefixed
with "named_" rather than "ns_". This will make it
easier to write unit tests for name server code, or
link name server functionality into new tools.
[RT #45186]
allows named to provide stale cached answers when
the authoritative server is under attack.
See max-stale-ttl, stale-answer-enable,
stale-answer-ttl. [RT #44790]
4610. [func] The "new-zones-directory" option specifies the
location of NZF or NZD files for storing
configuration of zones added by "rndc addzone".
Thanks to Petr Menšík. [RT #44853]
4549. [func] Added support for the EDNS TCP Keepalive option
(RFC 7828). [RT #42126]
4548. [func] Added support for the EDNS Padding option (RFC 7830).
[RT #42094]
4503. [cleanup] "make uninstall" now removes file installed by
BIND. (This currently excludes Python files
due to lack of support in setup.py.) [RT #42912]
4411. [func] "rndc dnstap -roll" automatically rolls the
dnstap output file; the previous version is
saved with ".0" suffix, and earlier versions
with ".1" and so on. An optional numeric argument
indicates how many prior files to save. [RT #42830]
