Sorry about the "Just another bug" statement. I didn't give it much
thought before I typed it. I realize from a software company point of
view, and a programmer's point of view, that statement carries some clout,
and could imply a fair amount of negativism. I did not intend that. I use
QDNS Pro for classic, because I believe it's a solid, reliable product. (
I do not feel the same way about BIND ) Men and Mice has always
demonstrated the quick and relentless squishing of bugs as soon as they're
found. Compared to a lot of other software, I must say that QDNS Pro has
been fairly bug free since I started using it in the version 1 days, and
I've always been able to use it in a production ISP environment, where my
ISP's reputation rests just as much on the reliability of my DNS servers as
the other servers I run.
