DNS and BIND, Fourth Edition
The Domain Naming System (DNS) is a glorious thing. It takes familiar Internet network and machine names (like "amazon.com") and converts them to Internet Protocol (IP) addresses (like "208.35.218.15") that are meaningful to routers and therefore useful for identifying the machine you want to reach. Whats amazing is that 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. Its 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 for this 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 BINDs 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. Throughout, Albitz and Liu maintain their impeccable style, combining text and illustrative listings into an educational whole. --David Wall

Topics covered: The Domain Naming System (DNS) and how its 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.

Dated, Biased, But Worth the Price ( User Rating : 30/50 )
In general, I am a big fan of For Dummies books. However, this book does not live up the usually high For Dummies standard for two reasons. This book was written at the height of the dot-com bubble, and GreatDomains.com wrote this book.

Having GreatDomains.com write this book would be like having..

Windows NT DNS
At the core of Windows NT DNS is a Zen-like guide to achieving harmony. In this case, the peaceful coexistence for which youre aiming isnt between you and the universe but rather between two naming structures that are somewhat at odds: the DNS (Domain Name Server) and the NetBIOS naming system. The authors expertly lead you through the process of creating a Windows networking environment that both DNS and Windows Internet Naming Service (WINS) can live with comfortably and productively. In addition, youre provided with tutorials on the naming schemas, as well as practical information on designing, implementing, and configuring a Windows-based DNS network. But what makes the book gel is the clarity of prose and thought resounding throughout.

The book opens with a chapter that coul..
