OpenSSH would prefer you to use certificates, they do not appear to
have the code to use SSHFP with DNSSEC.



This appears to be incorrect:
Configuring the SSH client to look for host keys in DNS

Easy peasy: either you can add the line VerifyHostKeyDNS yes to your ~/.ssh/config file, or you can supply it on the command line using ssh -o VerifyHostKeyDNS=yes.

OpenSSH_9.3p2, LibreSSL 3.3.6


Samba


I suspect this is why the user is posting.

OpenSSH


Already done.

Bind


Already done.

Microsoft


Appears to be somewhat in progress, but yeah, I don’t think anyone is surprised that they are lagging on standards support.
