Ah, great thanks! - I changed to 5000 and now it works (for now).
I will report if it becomes intermittent with the official version. I only
added the pipe-timeout recently, even without this option pdns would work
perfectly for days, I can do while true; do dig
@127.0.0.1${RANDOM}sdgsdg${RANDOM}.
zanview.com; done and let that run for hours without a single issue.
But come back 2 days later and it suddenly becomes intermittent, I would do:
➜ ~ host proxy.sdgsdg${RANDOM}.zanview.com
Host proxy.sdgsdg18933.zanview.com not found: 2(SERVFAIL)
➜ ~ host proxy.sdgsdg${RANDOM}.zanview.com
proxy.sdgsdg8009.zanview.com has address 89.207.135.250
In the logs I would see:
Jan 16 19:34:34 zanview pdns[21613]: Query: 'Q#
011proxy.sdgsdg18933.zanview.com#011IN#011SOA#011-1#01162.189.34.89#0110.0.0.0

'
No clues at all as to why 1 would fail and 1 wouldn't - no errors at all.
It wasn't a case of backend pipes not being restarted either, I could do
pkill dns_pipe.rb and powerdns would restart the pipes. It would just
simply stop resolving after a few days for no obvious reason.
I will see if this happens with the official latest release though :)
Thanks for your help,
Roman
