Re: spf ent txt records.

2013-03-13 Thread Leonardo Santagostini
Hello Hugo,

You can try looking at your zone files for SPF records and/or TXT
containing spf stuff.

You con implement SPF records as you wish.

Maybe you can take a look at: http://www.zytrax.com/books/dns/ch9/spf.html

 Dear all,



 I received the following question and I am not able to aswer as spf
 records are still mysterious to me.

 We are using BIND 9.7.



 Thanks in advance for your answers,



 Hugo,







 Does our DNS-server support SPF-type records? Or do we put SPF-info in a
 TXT-record?**

 ** **

 *Ref. :
 *Early implementations used TXT 
 recordshttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/TXT_recordfor implementation before the 
 new record type was commonly available in DNS
 software. Use of TXT records for SPF was intended as a transitional
 mechanism. However, according to the current RFC, RFC 
 4408http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc4408,
 section 3.1.1, An SPF-compliant domain name SHOULD have SPF records of
 both RR types. A compliant domain name MUST have a record of at least one
 type, and as such, TXT record use is not 
 deprecated.[2]http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sender_Policy_Framework#cite_note-2

  Hi all,
 
 
  we are currently using PowerDNS on our 12 Nameservers. Now we are
 thinking about a migration to bind.
 
  So we are seeking a way to distribute the named.conf.x for the several
 zonfiles. Currently this is solved by powerdns via mysql replication. Is
 there any tool in bind we could use. Generating the conf file and syncing
 via ssh/rsync is discussed on our side, and we hoped that there is a
 nicer way.

 Yup, have a look at Puppet.

 For the first while it will seem like way way more work than it is worth
 (and the whole declarative language bit makes my head hurt) but after
 investing a few hours getting things setup you'll wonder how you ever
 managed without it…
 Deploying a new server (or configs, etc to a bunch of servers) suddenly
 becomes trivial...

 
  Many registrys are testing the dns server if the zone is available
 during the registration. Genrating the new files via cron would cause the
 registration to fail.


 Setup Puppet to distribute the file, and then have an exec action that
 does:
 rndc addzone example.com '{type master; file master/example.com; };'

 on master(s) and:
 rndc addzone example.com '{type slave; master 192.0.2.1; };'
 on devices that you have told Puppet are slaves.

 After investing the time you'll wonder how you ever managed 2 boxes
 without it…

 More more info on Puppet at:

  I can't duplicate the issue in Q1 and I'm trying to determine a way of
 testing Q2.

 Q1 isn't related to DNS performance; both of the names you mention resolve
 to the same IP address via an A record.  There wasn't a significant
 difference in response time I saw by loading the webpages (both took ~1.3 s
 per curl), but one likely could improve webserver performance by running
 Apache, nginx, or almost anything else instead of than Microsoft's IIS.

 The domain seems to be missing A records for your nameservers, however:

   http://www.dnsvalidation.com/reports/50b3b5167d79ee02b826

 As for Q2, it depends on whether the nameservers you are pointing to do
 better in caching queries then your local nameservers would doing recursive
 lookups for themselves.  If the local nameservers have poor connectivity
 compared to the forwarders, maybe, otherwise it's probably not helpful to
 use forwarders.
