[c-nsp] GSS and ACE

Wed Apr 22 11:39:19 EDT 2009

Saying that the GSS is it's own DNS server isn't quite right - while it
performs DNS resolution for configured host records (based on rules), I
don't believe that it can recurse on behalf of a client, nor can it
actually perform AXFRs, as far as I am aware. In other words, it does some
DNS-related functions exceptionally well (rules, monitoring, etc) it does
not do others at all.

No, can work independently, no problem.

It can hook into CNR, and is also its own DNS server (can work with
anything else, too, obviously, through delegation).

   Our dreams are still big; it's just the future that got small.
