[Opendnssec-user] Recommendations for production use

[Arun N S]

Hi,

Any recommendation for the opendnssec / softhsm installation candidates
for production? Should we stick with the OS shipped
version softhsm-2.0.0rc1-3.el7.x86_64, opendnssec-1.4.7-3.el7.x86_64
(incase of Redhat 7) or compile and install the latest stable from
opendnssec.org?

thanks,

As a rule of a thumb (for me at least), if DNS/DNSSEC is your core
business go for the source and building the software by yourself. You would
like finer control over build and features. Otherwise stick with whatever
provided by the OS.

Hi,

Maybe not yet available in all distributions, but you might want to go with OpenDNSSEC 1.4.10 that includes many important bug fixes.

Thanks, that is one good reason use the compiled version. The binary
updates from the OS vendor takes long time always.
