I have FORMERR entries in my logs for 79 names since June 19, a total of 5185 error messages. 2247 of those are for wikipedia-related names. Spot-checking shows that the others appear to be unrelated issues; mostly bizarre-looking misconfigurations. > Even if PowerDNS is the only source of this issue, and even if the new > version of PowerDNS is released tomorrow, I'm sure there will still be > sites running the old version a year from now. So just relying on a > PowerDNS release to fix this problem seems unwise. A fix to the PowerDNS problem won't remove all the FORMERR messages, but a fixed version running the wikipedia-related domains would repair your original problem, and that seems like a reasonable thing to expect. More reasonable than asking BIND to ignore incorrect responses, IMO. . .
