the latter. DNS resolution only cares of DNS records, if you set them up
properly, they should work as configured.

BIND performance issues

2009-10-16 Thread Rob Z
Hello,
we are running a BIND 9.6.1-P1 on a SPARC T2000 / Solaris 10 for a recursive
DNS server.
I set up a simple MRTG monitoring tool which basically runs "dig ." and
parses the output to find out a response time.
The typical response time is 1ms.
Workload on the server sometimes gradually increases, but the DNS servers
response time is not increasing proportionally.
When the number of requests hits about 5500/sec the DNS response time
abruptly goes down to 400-500ms.
The load average and processor utilization do increase proportionally to the
number of requests.
The problem starts when the load average gets to about 10 and  named binary
consumes about 55% of CPU time.
There are no network or protocol errors (except  insignificant number of
udpInErrors), no heavy disk I/O.
Just curious if anybody else observed a similar behavior.
Any ideas are greatly appreciated.

Name server names

2009-10-16 Thread Jeff Lightner
Curious - We have name servers in our primary domain so those are the
FQDN names we put at Registrar and at network provider.

 

Is there any reason we can't also have separate external IPs and names
pointing to the same DNS servers for our separate domains (NATted in of
course)?   That is to say does DNS care what the actual hostname of the
DNS server is or does it only use the lookups to determine this
information?

Re: adding new RR?

2009-10-16 Thread aihua zhang
I have a project ,in this project i need  a Global-scale Mapping System,so
the first step i  just nedd to build small-private DNS-based enviroment,and
achieve my goal.
in order to accomplish these i  need to adding a new RR(eg. mapping_RR) and
creat a new domain(which maintain the mapping info,and the type of  mapping
info  is mapping_RR).
Now here is design,client-program send a mapping request,resolver can tell
the request type ,and send to proper domain-nameserver and send reply back.

yestoday, i have check lib\dns\rdata\in_1\_28.c,but i don't know the
whole project will work if i just  imitate _28.c to write a
mapping_RR.c  . if it doesn't work ,please direct me with some papers or
Independent Code. thanks!
