Seconded. I find that net-dns/bind is good for authoritative dns servers and for its tools so it tends to get installed even on laptops. Gentoo does not start daemons on install so really no need to have a fragile separate package only for bind provided tools. fwiw, net-dns/unbound is a good choice for a resolver even if you are running in a systemd environment. -- Eray > > > >
