BIND is the most commonly used implementation of DNS software. Every organization attached to the Internet depends on the DNS system to allow users to access services. When users connect to web sites, transfer files, or send email, they use domain names, such as “cert.org”. Their computers, using DNS servers, translate those host names into IP addresses, such as 10.21.30.5, in order for the computers to communicate.
