We have decided to use this build on the server, at least until the next openSUSE distribution release. We stopped using [[openSUSE Leap 42.1]] as we wanted to leverage the latest web and virtualization technologies which Leap fell just short of (namely http/2 and PHP 7 web technologies and IOMMU for virtualization). Also, Leap is based on an older version of SUSE Linux Enterprise at the moment, which is mature, but not as up to date. So far we have had a few stability issues but these seem to be fixing themselves with the regular updates provides. When confident that a distirubution contains the technologies we need, we will move back to a distribution release for ultimate stability.

* BIND DNS server is implmented as an old SysV service running under systemd. To enable it to boot on startup (which is still hit and miss), you must use the SysV command <code>chkconfig named on</code>, for other commands such as start, stop and restart, you must use systemd commands <code>service named start/stop/restart</code>.
