It was designed with DNSSEC in +mind and should be a useful debugging/query tool for DNSSEC. + +A lot of DNS debugging is done with dig, but as dig is made with +the same libraries as BIND8/9 (the most used DNS server out there), +what are you actually debugging/testing? Drill has nothing in common +with either NSD nor BIND. During the development process we are +actually uncovering obscure bugs in NSD and BIND (and in drill +itself). |
