I had already shown you the main table of contents of my book Alternative DNS Servers, but I was still working on the exact placement of the appendixes, which is why I omitted them.

12. ldapdns
13. dnsmasq
14. DNS on Microsoft Windows

16. DNS blacklists
17. Caching name servers
18. Delegation and private DNS roots
