Subject: [Pdns-users] PowerDNS capabilities- "link" domains?
To: [email protected]

I'm looking for a web based DNS frontend for our customers to use. We
have many circumstances where we simply symlink BIND zone files so
there's one set of A/CNAME/MX records to maintain for multiple domains
(foo.com, foo.org, foo.net, etc). If they need to change an A record,
it's done in one place and is consistent across all of those domains.
Does PowerDNS natively have the ability to do this?

I looked at the default DB schema for MySQL and I'm not seeing
anything in it that could accommodate this without another table or a
schema change. Anyone have insight as to weather this type of
modification is possible?

We have the same need, managing zones which handle more domains with same characteristics.

We made a little study, and there are two ways to go:

   * modify DB and powerdns code, in order to handle:
         o one or two more table for templates zones (cloning domains
           and records table structures)
         o two more field on domain table: one for indicating that
           records must be read from templates zone; the other with the
           name of template zone to be used
         o change additional features, like modifying the template must
           force change notifies for all domains linked to that zone.
   * We use poweradmin, which has templates zones, but they are quite
     too poor, so we asked to add in poweradmin:
         o link between template and domains
         o when a template change, make same changes to linked domains

Doing changes in poweradmin does not need any powerdns change.
But making such changes in powerdns would make all better.
