Hello,

I've packaged Unbound and put it into testing.
http://mirror.opencsw.org/testing/unbound-1.2.1,REV=2009.03.06-SunOS5.8-sparc-CSW.pkg.gz

>From Wikipedia:
Unbound is a validating, recursive, and caching DNS server software
product from NLnet Labs, VeriSign Inc., Nominet, and Kirei. It is
distributed free of charge in open source form under the BSD license.

Originally designed by Jakob Schlyter of Kirei and Roy Arends of Nominet
in 2004, funding was provided by Verisign and ep.net to develop a
prototype written in Java (David Blacka and Matt Larson, VeriSign).
Starting in 2006 the prototype was re-written for high-performance in
the C programming language by NLnet Labs.

Unbound is designed as a set of modular components that incorporate
modern features, such as enhanced security (DNSSEC) validation, Internet
Protocol Version 6 (IPv6), and a client resolver library API as an
integral part of the architecture.
