[Pdns-users] Authoritative 4.4.0-alpha1

[Peter van Dijk via Pdns-users]

Hello!

we are very happy to announce version 4.4.0-alpha1 of the Authoritative
Server.

This release drops GSS/TSIG support, please see 
https://doc.powerdns.com/authoritative/security-advisories/powerdns-advisory-2020-06.html

Version 4.4.0 brings a bunch of exciting changes:

* the LMDB backend now supports long record content, making it
production ready for everybody
* the SVCB and HTTPS record types are supported, with limited
additional processing
* transaction handling in the 2136 handler and the HTTP API was again
improved a lot, avoiding various spurious issues users may have noticed
if they do a lot of changes
* we finally emit Prometheus metrics!

Authoritative 4.3.x was the last release branch with support for
CentOS/RHEL 6. Problems running Authoritative 4.4.x on CentOS/RHEL 6
will not be treated as bugs by us.

We want to specifically thank Robin Geuze, Kees Monshouwer, Mischan
Toosarani-Hausberger, and Chris Hofstaedtler for their contributions to
this release. We are also grateful to all other reporters of bugs,
issues, feature requests, and submitters of smaller fixes and features.

Please make sure to read the Upgrade Notes before upgrading.


The tarball (plus signature) is available at 
https://downloads.powerdns.com/releases. Packages for CentOS 7 and 8,
Debian Stretch and Buster, Ubuntu Xenial, Bionic and Focal are

[Pdns-users] DNSDist 1.5.1 released

[Remi Gacogne via Pdns-users]

Hello everyone,

This release fixes a few issues discovered since 1.5.0:

- the thread handling responses sent from a backend was not stopped when
that backend was removed ;
- getEDNSOptions() would throw an exception for queries with an empty
additional section but records in the answer or authority sections  ;
- SetNegativeAndSOAAction was incorrectly adding EDNS to self-generated
responses when there was no EDNS in the query ;
- building with LLVM11 would generate an error.

It also adds a new command, clearConsoleHistory(), to prevent setups
issuing a very large number of console commands from consuming too much
memory.

Please see the dnsdist website [1] for the more complete changelog [2]
and the current documentation.

Release tarballs are available on the downloads website [3].

Several packages are also available in our repository [4]. Please be
aware that we have enabled a few additional features in our packages,
like DNS over HTTPS, DNS over TLS and DNSTAP support, on distributions
where the required dependencies were available.
