Hello list,
some time ago, there were rumours about a new protocol for controlling DNS
servers from various vendors. I think that FreeIPA could benefit from such
protocol - in long term perspective.
Please, join the 'nsrpc' mailing list dedicated to the new protocol and
contribute to protocol design.
Note that 'security' is open of big open questions!
The proposal/first protocol design:

Thank you for your time!

Subject: Interoperable NS control protocol R2

Hi,
about a year ago, a couple of us (DNS vendors) sat at a table and talked about
how to make NS control interoperable. This resulted in a paper where we
described what do (and more importantly, what do we don't) want. Since then,
the idea is still sound, but also a lot of changes happened. Like the demand
for the ability of a NS to talk to each other, zone provisioning and a
possible (web?) front-end for this protocol. We also had some feedback from
other people in the industry, so I came up with several changes to accomodate
for recent changes and added a bit of futureproofing. With all this, I'd like
to raise the topic again and see if there's still any agreement and will to do
this.
Here's a draft, but a very very open to discussion and clarification. The main
changes are shift to notation like JSON(-RPC), so we don't have to reinvent
the wheel, rambling about what is and isn't core and a couple thoughts about
confidentiality and security.

We also set up a mailinglist to joint the discussion
https://lists.nic.cz/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/nsrpc
ns...@lists.nic.cz
I'd really like to make this happen and deliver an actual code, as soon as we
reach some sort of agreement on this.
Cheers,
Marek
