Hi there, I have successfully setup a pdns instance using the geoip backend and a copy of the legacy GeoIP database (from https://dev.maxmind.com/geoip/legacy/install/country/). Throughout the MaxMind website, I read that this database is end of life in favor for GeoIP2 (available at https://dev.maxmind.com/geoip/geoip2/geolite2/).
The GeoIP legacy database is in the .DAT format, and the GeoIP2 database is in a MMDB format. Reading the pdns documentation, it is confusing whether MMDB is nativity supported or if I have to do something to the database file to make it work. My pdns.conf file contains the following parameters when using the GeoIP legacy database: launch=geoip geoip-database-files=/etc/pdns/GeoIP.dat geoip-zones-file=/etc/pdns/geo.yml That works fine. But when I change the *geoip-database-files* parameter to use the MMDB file, it does not work (geo requests are timing out - standard records work fine though). launch=geoip geoip-database-files=/etc/pdns/GeoLite2-City.mmdb geoip-zones-file=/etc/pdns/geo.yml Has anyone got an example or suggestions on how I can use the GeoIP2 databases with the pdns-geoip backend? System: CentOS 7 + pdns 4.1.3 Thanks, Chris.
