SPF implementation schedule.

2011-07-11 Thread kalpesh varyani
Hi, As per the ARM document for bind9.7, ISC has provided support for new RR(resource record) types including SPF. Comparison of code of Bind9.3 and Bind9.7 suggests that new libraries (at src\lib\dns) have been provided for SPF identification. However, either the function definitions are absent

Clients get DNS timeouts because ipv6 means more queries for each lookup

2011-07-11 Thread Jonathan Kamens
The number of DNS queries required for each address lookup requested by a client has gone up considerably because of IPV6. The problem is being exacerbated by the fact that many DNS servers on the net don't yet support IPV6 queries. The result is that address lookups are frequently taking so

I'm unclear how BIND could be modified to fix this. The querying client machines are asking BIND for records. BIND goes out to the authoritative nameservers to attempt to resolve said records. The broken nameservers (PowerDNS 3.0 etc) timeout or otherwise hand out bad responses

Wikipedia have been told multiple times that their nameservers are broken, that they fail to add the CNAME records, as required by RFC 1034, which results in garbage answers being returned. Those garbage answers result in the FORMERR log messages. Both of the answers below should have CNAME
