    Hi Shubham,

    As Michael said, BIND is open source and as long as you comply with the =
    MPL 2.0 license, you can redistribute it freely. We do have a = =E2=80=98current=E2=80=99 directory at =
    https://ftp.isc.org/isc/bind9/cur/ <https://ftp.isc.org/isc/bind9/cur/>, =
    you might want to just mirror that. We would prefer if you didn=E2=80=99t = redistribute the end-of-life ancient versions that we are no longer = maintaining.

    The text of the MPL2.0 license is here: = https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/MPL/2.0/
