3882. [func] By default, negative trust anchors will be tested
periodically to see whether data below them can be
validated, and if so, they will be allowed to
expire early. The "rndc nta -force" option
overrides this behvaior. The default NTA lifetime
and the recheck frequency can be configured by the
"nta-lifetime" and "nta-recheck" options. [RT #36146]
3867. [func] "rndc nta" can now be used to set a temporary
negative trust anchor, which disables DNSSEC
validation below a specified name for a specified
period of time (not exceeding 24 hours). This
can be used when validation for a domain is known
to be failing due to a configuration error on
the part of the domain owner rather than a
spoofing attack. [RT #29358]
information will be automatically updated if the
OS supports routing sockets. Use
"automatic-interface-scan no;" to disable.
Add "rndc scan" to trigger a scan. [RT #23027]
3705. [func] "configure --enable-native-pkcs11" enables BIND
to use the PKCS#11 API for all cryptographic
functions, so that it can drive a hardware service
module directly without the need to use a modified
OpenSSL as intermediary (so long as the HSM's vendor
provides a complete-enough implementation of the
PKCS#11 interface). This has been tested successfully
with the Thales nShield HSM and with SoftHSMv2 from
the OpenDNSSEC project. [RT #29031]
Updated CHANGES note:
3606. [func] "rndc flushtree" now flushes matching
records in the address database and bad cache
as well as the DNS cache. (Previously only the
DNS cache was flushed.) [RT #33970]
3606. [func] "rndc flushtree -all" flushes matching
records in the ADB and bad cache as well as
the DNS cache. (Without the "-all" option,
flushtree will still only flush records from
the DNS cache.) [RT #33970]
3525. [func] Support for additional signing algorithms in rndc:
hmac-sha1, -sha224, -sha256, -sha384, and -sha512.
The -A option to rndc-confgen can be used to
select the algorithm for the generated key.
(The default is still hmac-md5; this may
change in a future release.) [RT #20363]
