Package: pdnsd
Version: 1.2.7-par-1
Severity: important

I had been running pdnsd to quickly fail AAAA lookups due to the
work DNS infrastructure completely failing on them (SERVFAIL).

In going through some logs recently, I noticed it was no longer
working...  Unfortunately, I can't say when it stopped and my logs
again are flooded with crap :(

The code currently seems to be doing a full match on the neg sections,
not working on any subdomains - as documented.

Here's the relevant pdnsd.conf snippet:
/*
 * This section exists only to block *all* AAAA requests, so as to
 * 1) Work around my companies broken infrastructure
 * 2) Not loose sites/slow this machine down by the AAAA breakage
 */
neg { name=com; types=AAAA; }
neg { name=org; types=AAAA; }
neg { name=net; types=AAAA; }
neg { name=gov; types=AAAA; }
neg { name=mil; types=AAAA; }
