Using the bind/zone-xfer system would result in fewer&#xA;&gt; total addresses going through to the clients, thanks to the addition&#xA;&gt; of caching levels that the bind/zone-xfer system brings.&#xA;&gt;&#xA;&gt; That said, if the choice is between no-service and bind, bind it is &#xA;&gt; ;p&#xA;&#xA;Setting it up as a zone forwarder causes each request to go through to &#xA;the dnsseed backend for each request.&#xA;&#xA;Rob</html></oembed>
