Dear All ,
We host a public DNS Recursive Resolver and also cater training on hosting the
same using Bind.
Kindly let us know if we can host and distribute a version of bind software in
our own website in order to facilitate our training process.

The BIND software is released under the Mozilla Public License 2.0. You
can refer to the LICENSE file to learn about your rights in BIND or
most other open source projects. The only exception to my knowledge
would be projects with no license - those are all rights reserved by
default to protect authors who do not wish to grant additional rights
for their software.

I'm also hosting a mirror of BIND at git.ghnou.su/mir/bind without
issues.

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 ‘current’ 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’t 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/
