:Just thought of something... Correct me if I'm wrong, but named only
:needs to bind to an interface that it will receive queries on, right?
:How many cases (a handful?) will we have where the dynamic interface
:that BIND will not be able to attach to in a sandbox is the one where
:queries will be coming in on?  BIND can still make outgoing queries on
:any interface wether it is bound to it or not, right?  I think that
:would significantly lessen the number of people we think this is going

    Yes, you are absolutely correct.  If the 'query-source address * port 53;'
    option is not set, then named can certainly make outgoing (recursive)
    queries on any interface.

    The real issue with dynamic interfaces is with incoming queries - if
    named is acting as a server.   

    This was a good opint to bring up, Chris!
