Re: feature request for improving named-compilezone
We're using dynamic updates. Update files are generated mostly through scripts so you know exactly who did what and when.

Re: feature request for improving named-compilezone
If you are using a version control system like GIT then I would suggest you have a zonefile.md next to the zone with any specific notes and maybe a history/changelog. This may not answer your problem case but documentation as markdown or even just a TXT next to the zone is handy.

Because now it strips them and that is problematic. TL;DR Hard. Why? The program reads the zone file into BIND's memory-database representation and then dumps the database back into file. The database does not even have ability to keep any of "remarks"/comments because they are useless for the server itself. Having said that, I personally think that DNS is long overdue for a better zone transfer protocol, along with extensible zone file format. If you or someone else has an appetite to create new specification how to handle "non-DNS attributes" for individual RRs/RRsets/names then let's talk! I would love to work on that. And once comments/non-DNS attributes are first-class citizens in DNS server it will "naturally" solve the problem you are having. -- Petr Špaček Internet Systems Consortium -- Visit https://lists.isc.org/mailman/listinfo/bind-users to unsubscribe from this list ISC funds the development of this software with paid support subscriptions.

feature request for improving named-compilezone
Hi, How hard would it be to let named-compilezone keep any remarks that are present in the source file? Because now it strips them and that is problematic. -- Marco OpenPGP_signature.asc Description: OpenPGP digital signature -- Visit https://lists.isc.org/mailman/listinfo/bind-users to unsubscribe from this list ISC funds the development of this software with paid support subscriptions.
