Re: [Pdns-users] Configure PowerDNS recursor as NON RECURSIVE
Hi there, I am just trying to understand what you are trying to do. Are you aware that PowerDNS has two packages? There is the powerdns-server and powerdns-recursor. The pdns-server doesn't do recursion, that's what the recursor package is for. I hope I am understanding your question.

[Pdns-users] Configure PowerDNS recursor as NON RECURSIVE
Hi all, I am new to PowerDNS. I have downloaded the new PowerDNS recursor 3.3 tar file from their website. I am debugging the code to understand how it works. I can see that there are two config files being referred in the code. "recursor.conf" in pdns_recursor.cc and "pdns.conf" in rec_control.cc. I want to be able to config the PowerDNS recursor in Non Recursive mode. I know there are following parameters from whatever I read online, which let me do that. 1. allow-recursion, 2. allow-recursion-override, 3. recursor ... but I get an error when I put these parameters in recursor.conf that its not recognized. Also I am not sure what goes into the pdns.conf. I have not configured the backend database to anything. I just want to look at the flow of the functions being called when it is run in recursive mode as well as in non-recursive mode. Could anyone explain me how exactly am I supposed to configure the PowerDNS to be able to achieve above? I have been trying this since long time but not yet succeeded. I look forward for the help.

People run it at very very high query rates. There is no reason why a pipe should be slower than (say) a TCP/IP socket to MySQL. I am aware of several "native" CouchDB backends, but none has been released pubicly as far as I know.
