[CLUE-Talk] Future DNS presentation -- feedback requested

[Lynn Danielson]

Cricket Liu, author of O'Reilly's DNS & BIND and the 
DNS & BIND Cookbook, has volunteered to speak with us
this Spring.  He's suggested the following three talks
as possibilities:

 - threats to DNS on the Internet
 - securing BIND name servers
 - upgrading to BIND 9

Dave Anselmi has heard the first two of these talks at
past FRUUG meetings and thought they were excellent.
"The first is more general and maybe more interesting 
to people not running BIND.  The second is probably 
more useful for people running BIND who may not know 
much about security issues," says Dave.

Slides are available at:

On the other hand how many of you are running BIND and
have not yet upgraded to version 9?  If a preference is
vocalized by list members who would like to attend one
of these talks.  I'll pass that on to Cricket.

Thanks in advance,

Lynn
