- multiple DLZ's can be specified, including multiple DLZ's using
the same driver; e.g., two different back-ends both loaded by the
dlopen driver
- new "search" option can be specified in a DLZ indicating whether
this DLZ database should be searched for unknown zones. The
default is "yes". If "no", then the zone can only be found by
named if it's registered in the zone table, which happens if the
zone is configured for dynamic updates, or if "dlz <dlzname>" is
specified in the zone statement. (The latter functionality is
incomplete in this commit).

2988. [experimental] Added a "dlopen" DLZ driver, allowing the creation
of external DLZ drivers that can be loaded as
shared objects at runtime rather than linked with
named. Currently this is switched on via a
compile-time option, "configure --with-dlz-dlopen".
Note: the syntax for configuring DLZ zones
is likely to be refined in future releases.

2987. [func] Improve ease of configuring TKEY/GSS updates by
adding a "tkey-gssapi-keytab" option. If set,
updates will be allowed with any key matching
a principal in the specified keytab file.
"tkey-gssapi-credential" is no longer required
and is expected to be deprecated. (Contributed

support for addzone/delzone feature (see change
#2930). Removed "new-zone-file" option, replaced
with "allow-new-zones (yes|no)". The new-zone-file
for each view is now created automatically, with
a filename generated from a hash of the view name.
It is no longer necessary to "include" the
new-zone-file in named.conf; this happens
automatically. Zones that were not added via
"rndc addzone" can no longer be removed with
"rndc delzone". [RT #19447]
allow dynamic addition and deletion of zones.
To enable this feature, specify a "new-zone-file"
option at the view or options level in named.conf.
Zone configuration information for the new zones
will be written into that file. To make the new
zones persist after a restart, "include" the file
into named.conf in the appropriate view. (Note:
This feature is not yet documented, and its syntax
is expected to change.) [RT #19447]

dynamic DNS. 'auto-dnssec allow;' permits a zone
to be signed by creating keys for it in the
key-directory and using 'rndc sign <zone>'.
'auto-dnssec maintain;' allows that too, plus it
also keeps the zone's DNSSEC keys up to date
according to their timing metadata. [RT #19943]
update are now fully supported and no longer require
defines to enable. We now no longer overload the
NSEC3PARAM flag field, nor the NSEC OPT bit at the
apex. Secure to insecure changes are controlled by
by the named.conf option 'secure-to-insecure'.
Warning: If you had previously enabled support by
adding defines at compile time to BIND 9.6 you should
ensure that all changes that are in progress have
completed prior to upgrading to BIND 9.7. BIND 9.7
is not backwards compatible.
- add ddns-confgen command to generate
configuration text for named.conf
- add zone option "ddns-autoconf yes;", which
causes named to generate a TSIG session key
and allow updates to the zone using that key
- add '-l' (localhost) option to nsupdate, which
causes nsupdate to connect to a locally-running
named process using the session key generated
by named
