It is not possible now. The TTL is retrieved from the zonefile. Since there is typically not that much room in a zonefile, we like to use the parts that are there already. If someone has a usecase, it could be done of course. > Maybe this also applies to other parts of the synthesized LUA reply. > Fiddling with RCODE comes to mind: One of the reasons the LUA record type is rather simple is because it does not change the existence of a record. This makes sure NXDOMAIN, NOERROR, NSEC(3) bitmaps operate correctly. So you can't make a LUA record vanish. So for full flexibility, we do offer the Lua backend: https://doc.powerdns.com/authoritative/ This has more power, but it also involves more typing.
