Re: [Pdns-users] Heading up to PowerDNS Authoritative Server release 3.0: please check your open tickets

Good news about upcoming version.

However, not so good news for the LDAP backend...

So, I feel that LDAP-related issues should - at least - remain open, 
since they have not been fixed. Closing them with an indication of 
Unable to devote time to the LDAP backend (or similar), would most 
probably not promote true resolution (fix).


I always hope that a developer can sometime provide fixes for these, 
esp. 260  313 which are bugs (and not feature requests).


Would it help to request e.g. openldap developers with DNS background 
(through their mailing list) to possibly show interest in resolving them 
(since no one in pdns mailing list has volunteered and Norbert has 
stopped support)?


Thanks,
Nick

Hi Nick,

As nice as it would be to have unlimited development resources,
that is never the case. Since no community member has stepped
up to work on the LDAP backend and PowerDNS.com does not have
funds to work on the LDAP backend, it is better to go ahead and
mark them as closed/wontfix. If an enterprising LDAP developer
ever appears, they can find them all and work on them and fix
them just as easily as if they were open. Other than bug
reports, there has been no ground-swell of LDAP support either
with development time or funds. That is pretty indicative of
its relative importance compared to the more traditional SQL,
Bind and pipe backends.

Regards,
Ken

Just wanted to check what the status is on having a PowerDNS master
with a non-PowerDNS slave for DNSSEC signed zone - we had briefly
discussed this some time ago and I think the slave (if it's not
PowerDNS) currently won't do an AXFR when the RRSIG changes (and the
SOA won't change automatically). Will this be supported in the 3.0
release?
