Product: PowerDNS
Component: PowerDNS
Summary: Include PowerDNS recursor in the package
Version: 2.9.6-2mdk
Platform: PC
URL: http://doc.powerdns.com/built-in-recursor.html
OS/Version: All
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: enhancement
Priority: P2
AssignedTo: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
ReportedBy: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
PowerDNS has an resolver / recursing nameserver since 2.9.4. Please include this
in the package.
It can be enabled using the --enable-recursor configure option.
Please include a /etc/init.d/ script which starts the 'pdns_recursor' under a
different user (it defaults to root).
Note: the recursor is a separate daemon which by default listens on port 53.
This causes problems if PowerDNS is running on that port.
Suggested default /etc/powerdns/recursor.conf:
quiet=on
local-address=127.0.0.1
local-port=5300
The quiet=on is not documented at
http://doc.powerdns.com/built-in-recursor.html. Without this option
pdns_recursor logs every request and the answer to that request to syslog.
The pdns.conf setting (should somehow only be added if the recursor service is
enabled):
recursor=127.0.0.1:5300
