Hey Simon - I'm running 2.61test5 and working with the new host-record directive you added, as well as the cname directive, and I noticed some behavior that was somewhat counter-intuitive:
1) host-record=hostname,alias,alias,IP the alias's are returned as A records instead of CNAMEs, I'm guessing that was a conscious decision on your part, but it seems that for a more typical hostname with multiple CNAMEs, this is maybe not ideal, what do you think? 2) cname=test_cname,target_name if I do a "dig CNAME test_cname", it will forward the request to the upstream server, but if I do a "dig A test_name", then it will resolve it as a CNAME and answer with the CNAME & A as expected. Is that a bug or a feature? 3) on a perhaps related note, if I define a cname= without a corresponding /etc/hosts or host-record entry, it will never answer for the CNAME. So we cannot use cname to define aliases on hosts that we are not hosting an A record for? Is that a bug or a feature? regards, Rob
