Just recently started working on using Hesiod for a library I'm building
which will resolve the identity of a user on the other end of a socket
based on incoming origin (e-mail me privately if you're interested.. It
is based on some of my News Gizmo code).. The problem I have right now
is how to restrict access to secure information so that only "good folk"
can get it? I'm talking about stuff like .passwd and .uid entries, .group
entries that we don't want anyone outside of our networks to see. Is
there any way to do this with Hesiod's BIND base, or will I have to screw
with BIND?
Thanks,
