nsd users - Sep 2006 - nsd-notify *from* specified IP?

Hi

I'm running the nsd version in Debian stable (2.2.1). The machine has four
IPs
bound to eth0, eth0:0, eth0:1 and eth0:2.

nsd is bound to the second IP via the "-a" command line switch.

But I couldn't find a switch for nsd-notify, so it is sending its notify to
the
secondary from the fourth IP address.

Can I change that behaviour somehow?

TIA
Thomas

No this feature does not exist.

Please note that when you update the zone on the master - by providing
an updated zone file to the master, then nsd itself will detect the
change and send notifies to the secondary. However, to preempt your
question, that notify send also uses the default from address that the
system provides.

NSD tries to avoid creeping featurism. So I am hesitant about new
features such as this one.
