[NR] I didn't saw yet any option (logging or statistics) that allows an
administrator to know which time Bind is taking to process a query (by type
of query) and answer to it . This could be saved as general indicators
associated to the number of incoming queries  (divided by type of query).
If this is not possible yet, is there any log that can be activated that
allows me to know the time that Bind is is taking to process a query in
order to build some post-processing logic that could give me these
indicators.

Note: I'm considering questions to an authoritative server

Bind Statistics questions

2009-05-05 Thread Nuno Ribeiro
Hi all,

I have some doubts and I would like clarify them:
- Bind ( version 9.5) provides lots of statistics information and provides
two interfaces for users to get access to it (file dump and HTTP access).
For what I see and read the counters are cumulative during the time the
service is running. My question is if it possible to reset the counter
statistics in real time in order to have statistic details in a time
interval?
Other question is if there is any statistic detail provide us information
such this "average time answering to queries of type A"

Thanks in  any advance.

Best Regards,

IPV6 Bind doubt

2009-04-22 Thread Nuno Ribeiro
Hi all,

I have a doubt about bind and I would like you, if possible, to clarify it
to me:
It is possible to a bind server to receive a DNS query in IPV6, and forward
it using IPV4 to another server? If yes, how can I configure it in the
configuration file?

Thanks  in advance.

Regards,

Re: query an external nameserver doubt

2009-02-19 Thread Nuno Ribeiro
Here is an example:

There is a CNAME Record "www.example.test.com CNAME ts.example.test2.com" in
the "example.test.com" zone, which my nameserver is not authoritive. My name
server is authoritive for "example.test2.com" zone.

I receive a A query for "www.example.test.com". I send this query to
external nameservers and discover the CNAME record target is in my zone. Is
this possible?

Best Regards,

NR

query an external nameserver doubt

2009-02-18 Thread Nuno Ribeiro
Hi all,
Is it possible to send a query to a external nameserver that can be a CNAME
for a record located in other nameserver zone where we are authoritive?
Thanks in advance.
