I'm trying to get ALIAS records to work.
I think I set it up as stated here:
https://doc.powerdns.com/authoritative/guides/alias.html
The problem I have is if the ALIAS record points to something local to
that auth server it works fine. If it points to something resolved by
a different dns server it doesn't work.
I'm no expert, but I thought with pdns4 the auth server doesn't
handler recursion, pdns-recursor does. So I don't understand how adding
resolver=[::1]:5300
expand-alias=yes
to pdns.conf can work if auth server can't lookup external records?
You can't add this to recursor.conf.
I must be missing something. Any suggestions?
What you are missing is that with the configuration above, pdns-recursor
must be running on the same box, and configured to listen to requests on
port 5300 (instead of the default 53).
Alternatively, you can point to any other working resolver, even
resolver=8.8.8.8
(although if you have pdns-recursor running on a nearby box, you should
probably use that instead)
