To respond to your upgrade to bind-4.9.6 or 8.1.1, I would go with
4.9.6 because I know of many bugs left in 8.1.1 that can harm a Name
Server. When I get more information on this, I will release it to the
list.
One of the many bugs in it involves CNAME. I will talk to the person
who released this information to me and get back to the list.
