Hi, This is a bit of Ruby and a bit of Linux, but because I'm working on this in a Rails environment, I've decided to post it here.
I use the net-dns gem to make SOA queries like the following: def query_domain(domain) require 'Net/DNS' res = Net::DNS::Resolver.new result = res.query(domain, 'SOA') return result.answer end This works fine and I'm happy with the results. However, this is part of a server management setup that changes values in certain nameservers. We also want to monitor these changes, but most of these nameservers have a TTL of 4 hours for their domains. We can't have the system wait for 4 hours before checking whether the procedure worked, so I need a way to get the server at the other end to return the result again, just a few seconds later. Is this possible? Is there a way to make the queried DNS flush the results and request them again? Thank you very much. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
