Hello Chris. I had not seen those options in pdns_server as I had not delved into the operation of that utility.
However, after doing so, I note that there doesn't appear to be any clear documentation on usage related to API in particular .... part of that being that I missed some sections in the docs online, due to using the menu system on the left ... also not downloading the pdf format ... yes I know I'm welcome to contribute ... not knowledgeable about GitHub processes yet ... from experimenting, I discovered that you can set this for the gmysql backend using the gmysql-insert-record-query= configuration setting in pdns.conf where the original default setting was, gmysql-insert-record-query=insert into records (content,ttl,prio,type,domain_id,disabled,name,ordername,auth,change_date) values (?,?,?,?,?,?,?,?,?,NULL) If you change the NULL to UNIX_TIMESTAMP() gmysql-insert-record-query=insert into records (content,ttl,prio,type,domain_id,disabled,name,ordername,auth,change_date) values (?,?,?,?,?,?,?,?,?,UNIX_TIMESTAMP()) This appears to work correctly to update the change_date in conjunction with the webserver API for either inserting new records in an RRSET, or modifying existing records in an RRSET (using master branch PowerDNS Authoritative Server 0.0.1983g43fd645) Thanks for pointing me in the right direction Chris.
