Bind, Bind Over
BIND, BINDING - Contracts. These words are applied to the contract entered into between a master and an apprentice the latter is said to be bound.
In order to make a good binding the consent of the apprentice must be had together with that of his father, next friend, or some one standing in loco parentis. Whether a father has, by the common law, a right to bind out his child during his minority without his consent seems not to be settled.
The words to bind or binding are also used to signify that a thing is subject to an obligation, engagement or liability; as the judgment binds such an estate.
BIND, BIND OVER - Crim. Law. The act by which a magistrate or a court hold to bail a party accused of a crime or misdemeanor.
A person accused may be bound over to appear at a court having jurisdiction of the offence charged to answer; or he may be bound over to be of good behaviour or to keep the peace.
On refusing to enter into the requisite recognizance, the accused may be committed to prison.

BIND (Berkeley Internet Name Domain) is the most commonly used DNS server on the Internet, especially on Unix-like systems, where it is a de facto standard. Supported by Internet Systems Consortium. BIND was originally created by four graduate students with CSRG at the University of California, Berkeley and first released with 4.3BSD. Paul Vixie started maintaining it in 1988 while working for DEC.
