I have been using 4.0.x pdns/recursor setup to serve DNS records of phone numbers. For example, a domain name in records table could be 1.7.6.5.4.3.2.3.8.5.3.e164.arpa. Phone numbers can be random, i.e., they don't necessarily share a common prefix. The records are added/removed dynamically when phone numbers are allocated/released.
My usage corresponds to Scenario 1 of the migration guide: https://doc.powerdns.com/authoritative/guides/recursion.html i.e,, pdns server receives queries from users, serves them itself if found in database and forwards to Internet otherwise. If I have understood the migration guide correctly, in 4.1.0 every time when a phone number is allocated/released, I would need to modify a text file (forward-zones variable in recursor.conf or forward-zones-file) in addition to updating pdns database. If that is true, it would totally nullify the benefit of PowerDNS, where DNS records can be stored in database. I hope I misunderstood the migration guide. If so, please let me know how I can preserve the existing database only behavior in 4.1.0. -- Juha _______________________________________________ Pdns-users mailing list Pdns-users@mailman.powerdns.com https://mailman.powerdns.com/mailman/listinfo/pdns-users
