Type/Severity
Bug Fix Advisory
Topic
An updated caching-nameserver package that fixes a bug is now available.
Description
The caching-nameserver package provides configuration files that make BIND,
the DNS nameserver, act as a caching nameserver.
This update addresses the following issue:
- the IPv4 address of L.ROOT-SERVERS.NET (one of the DNS root servers)
changed. It was 198.32.64.12. It is now 199.7.83.42 This update includes
an edited named.ca file that reflects this change.
caching-nameserver users should upgrade to this updated package, which
resolves this issue.
