Hi Peter, NSD processes updates in batches. xfrd receives the [AI]XFR and schedules a reload for the main process, which in turn forks new serve children. The served-serial is updated after main reports success, the commit-serial (update written to disk) is updated before the reload (to explain the serials). The difference in timestamp can be explained by the fact that NSD looks up if the serial

Hi Jeroen, I just realised that the version I use is very old -- 4.1.

While SVCB/HTTPS provides a better solution for the browsing use case, I see other use cases where ALIAS/ANAME would be ideal, notably in apex RRs. So while fostering SVCB/HTTPS deployment is a good thing, I wouldn?t mind name server software implementing ALIAS. Including NSD, but I reckon it?s much more challenging to do due to NSD architecture than it was to implement it in PowerDNS. But if

On NetBSD 6.99.28-CURRENT, nsd 3.2.16 works fine, however nsd 4.0.0 is spinning chewing CPU. The logs show: Nov 28 23:07:00 xxx nsd[466]: sendmmsg failed: Resource temporarily unavailable ktruss shows it getting EAGAIN from sendmmsg(2) over and over again. According to the man page: [EAGAIN|EWOULDBLOCK] The socket is marked non-blocking and the requested

Hi, I'm a sys admin and currently working for a french hosting company. We provide DNS services to our customers and at the moment we are using BIND on Debian servers. BIND is a good software but we don't need a recursing DNS for our public DNS, and we needed better security than what BIND provides. So I made the suggestion to replace BIND by another DNS software. NSD appears to be the

Hi there! I remember reading that you cannot reload new zone files on the fly and require a full restart of the nsd daemon? We are evaluating multiple DNS servers that have better performance comparing to bind, but will require quite heavy zone reload (new and existing) every 10 minutes or so. Downtime (even 1-3 secs) is not the option. Thanks!

Hi Christof! AFAIK, PowerDNS is the only open source name server that supports ALIAS. There was an idea to standardize ALIAS as "ANAME" (https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-dnsop-aname/), but the idea was dropped in favor of SVCB/HTTPS record https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/rfc9460/. So now we have to wait until all Browser vendors implement SVCB/HTTPS. Regards Klaus PS: If

Hi Jean Claude, The message is printed when the bind operation failed. Why that happens is hard to say, I'd need more information for that. As the message does not say: address already in use (or similar), I'm guessing the address is not configured?

Hi, I was playing with the munin plugin in nsd4 beta4, and saw some strange errors. Directly after starting nsd on linux, I'm seeing: $ ps ax -o pid,ppid,user,args | grep nsd 1638 1 nsd /usr/sbin/nsd -c /etc/nsd/nsd.conf 1641 1638 nsd /usr/sbin/nsd -c /etc/nsd/nsd.conf 1647 1641 nsd /usr/sbin/nsd -c /etc/nsd/nsd.conf $ sudo munin-run nsd_munin_memory

Hi list, We are observing strange behavior of nsd v3.2.9 acting as slave DNS server. The environment is set up as follows: 0. We are using 172.16.0.0/16 subnet; 1. Primary Master server at 172.16.100.114; 2. Slave server at 172.16.100.115. The config file is in /etc/nsd-dns-slave.conf; 3. There may be also other Master servers im the given subnet. Now I want to permit DNS NOTIFY messages to

We upgraded to NSD 3.2.9 (from 3.2.8) because we encountered the problem "Fix denial of existence response for empty non-terminal that looks like a NSEC3-only domain (but has data below it)." (a nasty problem with DNSSEC). But we now have IXFR issues. On one name server, NSD 3.2.9 works fine, zones are IXFRed and work. On another name server, with much more zones (and big ones), we

Hi, I'm testing: $ sudo nsd-control status version: 4.0.1 verbosity: 2 I found a loop problem with this record: * IN CNAME none ("none" means no matching record in zone and therefore match * again) Queries that use "* CNAME" will result in a loop. The response will use TCP and will be limited to 65k bytes $ dig @127.0.0.1 sdfgsfg.test.com ;; Truncated,

Hi all, we have discovered a segfault in nsd-patch when renaming slave zone in nsd config file if some data for this zone still exists in the IXFR diff database. In my case, the zone "black" was renamed to "blackinwhite": > root at ggd115:/cage/nsd/var/nsd/zones#nsd-patch -c > /cage/nsd/etc/nsd-dns-slave.conf > reading database > reading updates to database >

Hi, I'm doing some quick tests with nsd-4.0.0b5 and (rc2). And found something strange when changing (nsd-control reconfig) one zone from: zone: name: 10.in-addr.arpa zonefile: /zones/empty.zone to zone: name: 10.in-addr.arpa request-xfr: 192.168.122.12 NOKEY allow-notify: 192.168.122.12 NOKEY zonefile: /zones/slave/10.rev and doing nsd-control reconfig.

Dear NSD users, Here is the release candidate for NSD 3.2.15. This comes with ILNP support, NSD-RRL and different TSIG initialization (it fails if it can't find no suitable algorithms, instead of can't find 'one of the'). Plus some bugfixes. The NSD-RRL implementation is based on the work by Vixie and Schryver. However, because of the code-diversity argument that is at the basis

Hi Sagar, Are you getting a particular error? Because the same method should work just fine in NSD. Simply open the corresponding zone file (as configured in nsd.conf) and put that line in there.

This release is an alpha release. We are currently not planning to have a 1.4.0 stable release as we want to prioritize implementing DNSSEC first. The next stable release will then be NSD 2.0.0 with DNSSEC support. This release has some major changes: the database format is much more compact, responses are generated on-the-fly instead of being precompiled in the database, and the new
