    Book summary:

    DNS and BIND is an explanation of the glorious Domain Name System (DNS). DNS takes familiar Internet network and machine names (such as "Amazon.co.uk") and converts them to Internet Protocol (IP) addresses (such as "208.35.218.15") that are meaningful to routers and so useful for identifying the machine you want to reach. What's amazing is, DNS enables someone in Germany to refer, by name, to a computer in Mongolia even if no one in Germany has ever accessed the distant machine before. It's pretty much self-configuring too: no human effort in Germany is necessary to make the Mongolian machine reachable by name. DNS and BIND explains how DNS works better than any other piece of documentation, printed or otherwise. The work of Paul Albitz and Cricket Liu, now in its fourth revision, has long been considered a classic among systems administrators and network architects, particularly those with a UNIX bent.

    The fourth edition is mainly an update: The authors have added coverage of incremental and conditional zone transfer with BIND's new NOTIFY features, as well as of Transaction Signatures (TSIG) and DNS Security Extensions (DNSSEC). Sections on firewalling and DNS for IPv6 addresses have been expanded, and Albitz and Liu maintain their impeccable style that combines text and illustrative listings into an educational whole throughout. --David Wall

    Topics covered: The Domain Name System (DNS) and how it's implemented by BIND (through versions 8.2.3 and 9.1.0), how to set up BIND, how to configure MX records for mail service, parent and child domains, NOTIFY, and DNS security. [via]

    Book summary:

    DNS on Windows 2000 concerns itself with small and large-scale DNS issues. That Microsoft likes to implement network services in its own way--some would call this innovation; others would say it's reinventing the wheel--is news to no one. The folks from Redmond have built Domain Name Service (DNS) capability into Windows 2000 Server, and sure enough, the implementation differs from all those that preceded it. There's nothing wrong with it. It's just unique, and DNS on Windows 2000 explains how. What's more, the book explains DNS generally, in both global and organisational terms. For that reason, the authors are correct to point out in their introduction that this is essentially the classic DNS and BIND (which Cricket Liu, one of this book's authors, also co-wrote) for Windows 2000 instead of UNIX.

    This book does a good job of tying together all aspects of DNS provision for a network administrator. It's a complex undertaking, since DNS involves not only elaborately inter-operating machines in the organisational network, but also interactions with other networks' services and global authorities. Liu and Matt Larson explain the whole system, from starting and stopping a DNS service under Windows 2000 to establishing an organisation's namespace in the global hierarchy. They rely on diagrams to clarify DNS conceptually, screen shots to set readers straight on how to configure servers and plenty of annotated nslookup runs to demonstrate correct and incorrect server behaviour. This book's your best bet if you need to implement DNS on a Windows 2000 network and have either no knowledge of DNS, or knowledge that's rooted in UNIX implementations. --David Wall

    Topics covered: The Domain Name System (DNS) in general, and means of implementing it under Microsoft Windows 2000 Server specifically. There are specific instructions for setting up Microsoft DNS Server instances in a number of configurations, and advice on how to set up zones, MX records and sub-domains. All aspects of the interaction between Windows 2000 and DNS--notably Active Directory--receive attention. [via]

    Book summary:

    Practically every network administrator has a shelf full of O'Reilly animal books to help decode the mysteries of software, services, and connectivity techniques--but that multicolored bookshelf isn't too portable. Now, harried administrators who have technical problems away from the office need only load The Networking CD Bookshelf in their laptops and be on their way. This single disk holds the full text of six popular O'Reilly titles--TCP/IP Network Administration, DNS and BIND, Sendmail, Sendmail Desktop Reference, Practical Unix and Internet Security, and Building Internet Firewalls--making it an excellent value.

    When you load the disk, an HTML welcome page pops up in your browser, allowing you to view the table of contents of any of the books. From there, you can drill down to the specific chapter and section that contains the information you're looking for. The disk also includes a combined index of all six books, so it's easy to find the information that interests you. The text itself contains links to related sections, as well as all illustrations. Though it's possible to perform a full-text search on all six books, this Java-based feature seems rather slow.

    The publisher packs this CD-ROM with a traditional printed copy of DNS and BIND, Third Edition, as a bonus, but The Networking CD Bookshelf CD-ROM represents an excellent value by itself. --David Wall [via]
