Reliability of DNS (bind) on a dedicated server with whm
I just got a dedicated server (cpanel/whm. redhat 7.3), i installed bind in it.How reliable is bind as a DNS server, i am very concerned because if bind goes down all my sites would be offline too.
Im using bind-9.2.1-1.7x.2
Do you have any experiences with this issue? Want to know if its or not a stable server and if i should better use my providers DNS instead of mine.
Also, what are the common problems with bind that leads to a crash.
I suppose that if i have the latest, stable version ill be fine right?
I used to have a reseller account with Hostpacket and the dns server went down a lot of times screwing a lot of people. Thats the kind of problems i dont want to have.
Hope i was clear with my question

Regards!
