BINDBIND (Berkeley Internet Name Domain) is the most commonly used DNS-server on the Internet. Supported by the Internet Software Consortium, it was originally created by Paul Vixie in 1988 while working for DEC. Like Sendmail and FTP, BIND has had a high number of security vulnerabilities in the past.
