NSD 4.11.0 (Current version)
- Source:
- nsd-4.11.0.tar.gz | sha1 | sha256 | pgp sig
- Doc:
- man-page
- Date:
- 12 December, 2024
Linux and *BSD sources and binaries can easily be obtained using your (favorite) package manager or ports collection.
Features
- Support reloading configuration on SIGHUP.
- Fix #383: log timestamps in ISO8601 format with timezone. This adds the option `log-time-iso: yes` that logs in ISO8601 format.
- Updated cookie secrets management. The default cookie secret file location can be set at compile time with the --with-cookiesecretsfile=path option to configure. The default location is changed to {dbdir}/cookiesecrets.txt. The previous default location will be checked at startup when there is no cookie secrets file at the new default location. A staging cookie can now also be configured in the configuration file and secrets configured in the configuration file now take precedence over those read from file. All DNS related setting in the configuration file will be reevaluated and effectuated after nsd-control reconfig.
- Merge #398: RFC 9660 The DNS Zone Version (ZONEVERSION) Option
- Merge #406: ohttp and tls-supported-groups SvcParam suppor
- Merge #408: NINFO, RKEY, RESINFO, WALLET, CLA and TA RR types
- Merge #409: Writing of NSAP-PTR, GPOS and HIP RR types
- Merge #407: Better balanced verbosity levels for logging.
Bug Fixes
- Fix title underline and declaration after statement warnings.
- Add cross platform freebsd, openbsd and netbsd to github ci.
- Update simdzone to include fix for netbsd double bswap declarations, and also semantic checks for DS and ZONEMD. And CFLAGS has -march prepended to fix detection.
- Merge #376: Point the user towards tcpdump for logging individual queries.
- Track $INCLUDEs in zone files.
- Fix ci to update macos-12 to the macos-15 runner image.
- Merge #390: Apply non-xfr tasks before xfr tasks. This fixes an issue where non-xfr tasks are lost when they are batch processed together with non-xfr tasks. This merge also changes that notifies are passed on from the serve processes to the xfrd directly instead of via main. This was necessary to allow applying the non-xfr tasks without forking a backup-main for the sole purpose of forwarding notifies.

NSD 4.10.0
- Download:
- nsd-4.10.0.tar.gz | sha1 | sha256 | pgp sig
- Date:
- 13 June, 2024
Features
- Merge #278: Replace Flex+Bison based zone parser with simdzone. Performance of loading zones and IXFRs is greatly improved by using the simdzone project by NLnet Labs. The optimized presentation format parser leverages SIMD instructions in modern CPUs to improve throughput. Right now SSE4.2 and AVX2 instruction sets are supported, other instruction sets will use the fallback implementation, which still is a decent improvement over the Flex+Bison based parser.
Bug Fixes
- Fix that when the server truncates the pidfile, it does not follow symbolic links.
- Fix #317: nsd should not chown its PID file.
- For #317: Modify nsd service script to stop NSD from creating a pid file that systemd is not using.

NSD 4.9.0
- Download:
- nsd-4.9.0.tar.gz | sha1 | sha256 | pgp sig
- Date:
- 3 April, 2024
Features
- Merge #315: Allow SOA apex queries to otherwise with allow-query protected zones for clients matching a provide-xfr rule, because clients that are allowed to transfer the zone need to be able to query SOA at the apex preceding the actual transfer.
- Merge #304: Support for Catalog zones version "2" as specified in RFC 9432. Both the consumer as well as the producer role are implemented, but only a single catalog consumer zone is allowed. The "coo" property, only relevant with multiple catalog consumer, is therefore not supported. The "group" property is supported. Have a look at the nsd.conf man page for details on how to configure and use catalog zones.
Bug Fixes
- Fix to sync the tests script file common.sh.
- Update test script file common.sh.

- Fix #313: nsd 4.8 stats with implausible spikes.
- Fix compile with memclean for xfrd nsd.db close.
- In xfrd del secondary zone, the timer could perhaps have event_added, and if so, it would not be event_del if a tcp connection is active at the time. This could cause the libevent event lists to fail. Also fix to make sure to set event_added for the nsd-control ssl nonblocking handshake and check event_added there too, for extra certainty.
- Merge #316: Fix to reap defunct children by the reload process that emerged when some serve child processes were still serving TCP request while the others had already quit, while the reload process was waiting for the signal from the backup/old main process that all children exited.

NSD 4.5.0
- Download:
- nsd-4.5.0.tar.gz | sha1 | sha256 | pgp sig
- Date:
- 13 May, 2022
Features
- Merge PR #209: IXFR out This adds IXFR out functionality to NSD. NSD can copy IXFRs from upstream to downstream clients, or create IXFRs from zonefiles. The options store-ixfr: yes and create-ixfr: yes can be used to turn this on. Default is turned off. The options ixfr-number and ixfr-size can be used to tune the number of IXFR transfers and total data size stored. This is configured per zone, the IXFRs are served to the hosts that are allowed to perform zone transfers. And if TSIG is configured, signed with the same key. The content is stored to file if a zonefile is configured for the zone, in the zonefile.ixfr and zonefile.ixfr.2, .. files. They contain readable text format. The number of IXFRs is num.rixfr in statistics output, also per zone if per zone statistics are enabled. If offline, nsd-checkzone -i can create ixfr files. NSD already supports requesting IXFRs, this addition allows NSD to serve IXFR transfers to clients. NSD stops responding with NOTIMPL to IXFR requests, also for zones that do not have IXFR enabled. The clients gets a full zone reply or a status reply if the serial is up to date.
Bug Fixes
- Fix code analyzer zero divide warning.
- Fix code analyzer large value with assertion.

NSD 3.2.11
- Download:
- nsd-3.2.11.tar.gz | sha1
- Date:
- 09 Jul, 2012
Features
- Fallback to AXFR if IXFR is unknown at the primary. NSD considers IXFR unknown at the primary if there is a negative response for the IXFR RRtype. This does not override the value for 'allow-axfr-fallback'.
- Allow for reading in new DNSKEY algorithm mnemonics (RFC5155, RFC5702, RFC5933, and RFC6605 (ECDSA)).
- Zone statistics, enable with --enable-zone-stats. This stores the BIND8 stats per zone in a configurable statistics file. This option does not scale and should therefore not be enabled when serving many zones.
- Support for TLSA RRtype (DANE).
Bug Fixes
- Fix for qtype ANY for a wildcard domain in NSEC signed zone: Don't add the wildcard domain NSEC into the answer section. Instead, put the wildcard expanded NSEC into the answer section and keep the wildcard domain NSEC in the authority section.

- nsd-3.2.9.tar.gz | sha1
- Date:
- 23 Nov, 2011
Features
- Minimize responses to reduce truncation: NSD will only add optional records to the authority and additional sections when the response size does not exceed the minimal response size. _p()The minimal response size is 512 (no-EDNS), 1480 (EDNS/IPv4), 1220 (EDNS/IPv6), or the advertized EDNS buffer size if that is smaller than the EDNS default. _p()The feature is enabled by default. You can disable it by configuring NSD with --disable-minimal-responses. _p()
- Less NSEC3 prehashing. This will make NSD handle zone transfers faster, but will decrease the performance of NXDOMAIN and wildcard NODATA responses. Full prehashing is enabled by default. If you want less NSEC3 prehashing, configure NSD with --disable-full-prehash. Thanks Secure64 for the patch.

NSD 3.0.5
- Download:
- nsd-3.0.5.tar.gz | sha1
- Date:
- 20 Mar, 2007
Bug Fixes
- Fixed problem with reload waiting very long. If the OS has a raging herd problem, NSD could block in a UDP operation and that process would stop reload from finishing. Made UDP sockets nonblocking.
- Made TCP listen sockets nonblocking. NSD could block in accept.
- Handle the new CERT RDATA types defined in RFC 4398 (submitted by Mans Nilsson).
- Fixed a bug where zonec would choke on unknown CERT RDATA types.

- Added verbosity mode (-V <level>) for extra operational logging.
- zonesdir default is /etc/nsd. This can be overridden in nsd.conf.
- if clients drop the tcp connection this does not result in a logfile entry, unless verbosity is set 2 or more.
NSD 3.0.4
- Download:
- nsd-3.0.4.tar.gz | sha1
- Date:
- 18 Jan, 2007
Features
- Added contrib/nsd.zones2nsd.conf python script to convert NSD 2 to NSD 3 config files, contributed by Stephane Bortzmeyer.
- The nsdc control script will print 'nsd startup failed' if the nsd executable does not start (due to bad permissions, bad config, ...).
Bug Fixes
- zonec will print an error when other data is put next to a CNAME.
- Fixup unaligned memory access that could occur when reading ixfr.db with a partial transfer inside.
- Fixup for the WKS RR type printout by nsd-patch and nsd-xfer.
- Error message 'could not read database CRC' now only given on error.
- ./configure --zonesdir=<directory for zone files> now works to set a default value for the zonesdir: <dir> nsd.conf directive. Set zonesdir: "" to disable the change of directory.
- Bug: reload crashes with log message 'continuing with old database', and after that no more zone updates. Manual fix is to kill -HUP, but now fixed in software to try to reload again (and again).
- Small speedup where xfrd could briefly be busy-waiting.
- If master sends IXFR with glue that is already present in the zone this is silently accepted. Printed in debug mode -L 2. To make the log file smaller.
- Exponential backoff for zones that never worked to max of 4 hours. For expired zones the SOA retry values are used.
- allow-notify acl entries 'NOKEY' match only queries without TSIG.
- Answers to valid notifies contained wrong RR counts in the header. The notifies were processed correctly, but now the acknowledgement reply is in correct DNS format.

NSD 2.2.0
- Download:
- nsd-2.2.0.tar.gz | md5
- Date:
- 18 Jan, 2005
Features
- nsd-xfer: replacement program for named-xfer to perform zone transfers using AXFR. TSIG is supported by nsd-xfer but not yet by the nsd server. DNSSEC is also supported. TSIG requires OpenSSL version 0.9.7 or higher, configure using --disable-tsig if you do not have OpenSSL installed. Configure using --with-ssl=path if OpenSSL is not installed at a standard location.
Bug Fixes
- Fixed endian problem in WKS record.
- Protocol can now be specified numerically in WKS record.
- Allow escape sequences (\DDD) in TTL, RR class, and RR type.
- The zone compiler now accepts many more characters in unquoted strings such as domain name labels. The characters no longer need to be escaped with a backslash.
