package does have BXA export approval, but the licensing strings on the dnssafe code are a bit unpleasant. The crypto is easy to restore and bind will run without it - just without full dnssec support. Obtained from: The Internet Software Consortium (www.isc.org)

|
|
|
|
<P>The <CODE>controls</CODE> statement declares control channels
|
|
to be used by system
|
|
administrators to affect the operation of the local name server. These
|
|
control channels are used by the <CODE>ndc</CODE> utility to send commands
|
|
to and retrieve non-DNS results from a name server.</P>
|
|
|
|
<P>A <CODE>unix</CODE> control channel is a FIFO in the file system,
|
|
and access to it is
|
|
controlled by normal file system permissions.
|
|
It is created by <CODE>named</CODE> with the specified file mode bits (see
|
|
the <CODE>chmod</CODE>(1) manual page), user and group owner.
|
|
Note that, unlike <CODE>chmod</CODE>, the mode bits specified for
|
|
<CODE>perm</CODE> will normally have a leading 0 so the number
|
|
is interpreted as octal. Also note that the user and group
|
|
ownership specified as <CODE>owner</CODE> and <CODE>group</CODE>
|
|
must be given as numbers, not names.
|
|
It is recommended that the
|
|
permissions be restricted to administrative personnel only, or else any
|
|
user on the system might be able to manage the local name server.</P>
|
|
|
|
<P>An <CODE>inet</CODE> control channel is a TCP/IP socket accessible
|
|
to the Internet, created at the specified <VAR>ip_port</VAR> on the
|
|
specified <VAR>ip_addr</VAR>.
|
|
Modern <VAR>telnet</VAR> clients are capable of speaking directly to these
|
|
sockets, and the control protocol is ARPAnet-style text. It is recommended
|
|
that 127.0.0.1 be the only <VAR>ip_addr</VAR> used, and this only if you
|
|
trust all non-privileged users on the local host to manage your name
|
|
server.</P>
