MultiBind Testers Wanted

American Webmasters is completing modifications to Bind 9.1.1 in a new version called MultiBind.  MultiBind solves the problem of multiple root networks on
the internet by allowing the specification of more than one root.cache file.
 
Cache files are processed in order of sysadmin-specified preference. When looking for a TLD, MultiBind searches each of the RSNs until a match is found.
 
MultiBind will also allow the sysadmin to specify RSN-TLD preferences so that control is not just at the root server level.
 
We are looking for testers - anyone who would like the code, please respond here. The beta release will be ready on May 1, 2001
