So maybe we just need a domain class a record class to start, or do you
think I should lean toward a functional approach?
//bad pseudo code to follow
class domain {
function domain($domainname == false) {
if (is_numeric($domainname))
load SOA data / perms
return self
elseif($domainname)
deserialize domain data
return self
else
load defaults
return self
}
}
//getters/setters
//@ return array of records
function getRecords()
//addRecord to domains
// @params record object/array of record objects
function addRecord($record) {
}
function save {
if (domainid == newdomain)
insert
else
update
}
}
}

Bill, I'm not sure if this fits on your long term roadmap, but a little code reorg to make an API for VegaDNS would be nice. Something to make it easier to add new interfaces to the database like XML-RPC, SOAP or maybe even a libvegadns for c. ok back to my cave.

Similar to the activate and de-activate domain feature except for a specific record. Obviously all records would be activated by default. I will explain my reason. I have just written a few PHP pages to function as a dynamic DNS service. (You will probably ask why when there are so many free ones , well quite simply because overseas access is not always reliable enough in South Africa) What I started thinking was now I could use this service for mail spooling , but straight away I realized that it would not be reliable since the records would be incorrect if the client machine was off-line. What I came up with was if I removed the record if it had not been updated for X minutes then I would never hand out incorrect DNS records. But rather than deleting and re-creating records I would prefer to just run an activation/de-activation routine . Then all I would need is a cron job looking at all my dynamic DNS entries and de-activating ones that are more than X minutes old leaving the static records in place and mail backing up on secondary MX server. I know this is long winded , but I figured if I spelled it out clearly enough someone else might also think it wasn't such a bad idea. This should be relatively easy to do, but will require an edit to the records table. Adding an enum column called "active", with the options of "yes" and "no", defaulting to "yes", should do the trick. Regards, Bill

Make sure there is a trailing dot on the hostname. I don't recall if it will cause this particular error or not, though. I'd have to look at the code. Regards, Bill

Re: [users] PTR Record
I suggest that you read the fine manuals before posting to this list again. http://tinydns.org/ when you've figured out how to configure djbdns/tinydns without a web-based configuration system, if you're still confused, then go ahead and come back to us...
