[Pdns-users] Additional records

2010-12-08 Thread Pete Stapley

When I query the SOA record for a domain from a bind server I receive this.

 set type=SOA
 yahoo.com
Server: ns.domain1.com
Address:1.2.3.4#53

Non-authoritative answer:
yahoo.com
origin = ns1.yahoo.com
mail addr = hostmaster.yahoo-inc.com
serial = 2010120812
refresh = 3600
retry = 300
expire = 1814400
minimum = 600

yahoo.com   nameserver = ns6.yahoo.com.
yahoo.com   nameserver = ns4.yahoo.com.
yahoo.com   nameserver = ns3.yahoo.com.
ns1.yahoo.com   internet address = 68.180.131.16

ns6.yahoo.com   internet address = 202.43.223.170
ns8.yahoo.com   internet address = 202.165.104.22

When I query a powerdns server I receive this.

 yahoo.com
Server: ns.domain2.com
Address:2.3.4.5#53

Is there a way to configure powerdns to return the extra records? I 
think I may be missing something. Thanks!

That does not really make much sense with regards to SOA records. If you look
up NS records you will see that it returns the needed additional information.
If you can show a performance problem resulting from that missing extra
information, it might be worth adding them in. Currently, that extra information
is not returned. I actually logged a bug for this issue with regards to MX
records, I think. In that case, the performance with PDNS was dramatically
slower than AD DNS which returned some additional information in the MX query.
PDNS now returns that information and its performance is great. I think if
you have an actual problem caused by that missing additional information,
you will have the best chance of having it included in a future release.

Cheers,
Ken
