TSIG support for NSD?

NSD
1

Hi there,

Anyone here that can comment on the development timelines for NSD?

I am looking in particular for information about the potential support
for TSIG on the server side. Apparently it is being supported by the
nsd-xfer client already, but I did not find anything in the TODO files
about TSIG support for the server.

Thanks,

Romeo

Server side TSIG support is being worked on, but it will take a while before it is ready for release.

Thanks for this info. Care to quantify 'a while'? :slight_smile: For a ballpark figure,
would you guestimate months, weeks or years until a beta version might
appear?

Thanks again,

Months :slight_smile: Also because there are going to be other changes into NSD as well, such as a configuration file so you can actually specify which TSIG keys to allow.
