Hello, One if my users tried to set up some DNS-SD[1] records in one of his zones today. He's running BIND, so he put something like this in his zone file:
foo\032wiki._http._tcp SRV 0 0 80 bar.example.com. One of my BIND servers took a zone transfer of this, and the records appear correctly in the slave zone file. My PowerDNS servers however are not storing it correctly. I'm using the gsqlite backend, and at first I suspected that because I've had escaping issues before, but now I don't think the problem lies there. The records in sqlite look like this: sqlite> select * from records where domain_id=419 and type="SRV"; 529053|419|foo wiki._http._tcp.example.com|SRV|0 80 bar.example.com.|120|0| I was expecting "foo\032wiki._http._tcp.example.com" or perhaps "foo\ wiki._http._tcp.example.com". Of course a query for the records with dig produces no match, whereas the same query against the BIND server does return the SRV record. Out of curiosity I hacked about with pdns/resolver.cc such that it would store "\ " instead of " ". At this point a query for foo\032wiki._http._tcp.example.com caused pdns to say: Received a malformed qdomain from 2001:7b8:2ff:9c::2, 'foo wiki._http._tcp.example.com': sending servfail So it seems to me that there are multiple places here that can't handle "\032" in a query name or in a record label. Just changing backend is not going to get this working for me, right? I raised a bug here: http://wiki.powerdns.com/trac/ticket/345 Any comments?
