wrapsrv(1)wrapsrv(1)NAME
wrapsrv - DNS SRV record command line wrapper
SYNOPSIS
wrapsrv [SRVNAME] [COMMAND] [OPTION]...
DESCRIPTION
wrapsrv adds support for connecting to a network service based on DNS SRV record lookups to commands that do not support the DNS SRV
record. wrapsrv implements the weighted priority client connection algorithm in RFC 2782. The specified command line will be invoked one or
more times with %h and %p sequences in the command line substituted for the hostname and port elements of the selected SRV record. The com-
mand line invoked must exit and return 0 after a successful connection or exit and return non-zero if the connection fails. wrapsrv will
itself exit with the return code of the last command line invocation, or it may exit with a non-zero return code if the DNS SRV record
lookup fails for any reason.

Net::DNS::RR - DNS Resource Record base class
SYNOPSIS
use Net::DNS;
$rr = new Net::DNS::RR('example.com IN A 192.0.2.99');
$rr = new Net::DNS::RR(
name => 'example.com'
type => 'A',
address => '192.0.2.99'
);
DESCRIPTION
"Net::DNS::RR" is the base class for DNS Resource Record (RR) objects. See also the manual pages for each RR type.
METHODS
WARNING!!! Do not assume the RR objects you receive from a query are of a particular type -- always check the object type before calling
any of its methods. If you call an unknown method, you will get an error message and execution will be terminated.
new (from string)
$a = Net::DNS::RR->new("foo.example.com. 86400 A 10.1.2.3");
$mx = Net::DNS::RR->new("example.com. 7200 MX 10 mailhost.example.com.");
$cname = Net::DNS::RR->new("www.example.com 300 IN CNAME www1.example.com");
$txt = Net::DNS::RR->new('baz.example.com 3600 HS TXT "text record"');
Returns a "Net::DNS::RR" object of the appropriate type and initialized from the string passed by the user. The format of the string is
that used in zone files, and is compatible with the string returned by "Net::DNS::RR->string".
The name and RR type are required; all other information is optional. If omitted, the TTL defaults to 0 and the RR class defaults to IN.
Omitting the optional fields is useful for creating the empty RDATA sections required for certain dynamic update operations. See the
"Net::DNS::Update" manual page for additional examples.
All names must be fully qualified. The trailing dot (.) is optional.
new (from hash)
$rr = Net::DNS::RR->new(
name => "foo.example.com",
ttl => 86400,
class => "IN",
type => "A",
address => "10.1.2.3",
);
$rr = Net::DNS::RR->new(
name => "foo.example.com",
type => "A",
);
Returns an RR object of the appropriate type, or a "Net::DNS::RR" object if the type isn't implemented. See the manual pages for each RR
type to see what fields the type requires.
The "Name" and "Type" fields are required; all others are optional. If omitted, "TTL" defaults to 0 and "Class" defaults to IN. Omitting
the optional fields is useful for creating the empty RDATA sections required for certain dynamic update operations.
The fields are case-insensitive, but starting each with uppercase is recommended.
decode
($rrobj, $offset) = Net::DNS::RR->decode($data, $offset);
Decodes a DNS resource record at the specified location within a DNS packet. The first argument is a reference to the packet data. The
second argument is the offset within the packet where the resource record begins.
Returns a Net::DNS::RR object and the offset of the next location in the packet.
Decoding is aborted if the object could not be created (e.g., corrupt or insufficient data).
print
$rr->print;
Prints the record to the standard output. Calls the string method to get the RR's string representation.
string
print $rr->string, "
";
Returns a string representation of the RR. Calls the rdatastr method to get the RR-specific data. Domain names arereturned in RFC1035
format, i.e. all non letter, digit, hyphen characters are represented as DDD. Besides, all domain names are expanded to fully qualified
domain names, with trailing dot. This is in contrast to accessor methods of individual data elements in RR objects, like name, which will
not return the trailing dot.
rdatastr
$s = $rr->rdatastr;
Returns a string containing RR-specific data. Subclasses will need to implement this method.
name
$name = $rr->name;
Returns the record's domain name.
type
$type = $rr->type;
Returns the record's type.
class
$class = $rr->class;
Returns the record's class.
ttl
$ttl = $rr->ttl;
Returns the record's time-to-live (TTL).
rdlength
$rdlength = $rr->rdlength;
Returns the length of the record's data section.
rdata
$rdata = $rr->rdata
Returns the record's data section as binary data.
Sorting of RR arrays
As of version 0.55 there is functionality to help you sort RR arrays. The sorting is done by Net::DNS::rrsort(), see the Net::DNS
documentation. This package provides class methods to set the sorting functions used for a particular RR based on a particular attribute.
set_rrsort_func
Net::DNS::RR::SRV->set_rrsort_func("priority", sub { my ($a,$b)=($Net::DNS::a,$Net::DNS::b);
$a->priority <=> $b->priority || $b->weight <=> $a->weight
}
Net::DNS::RR::SRV->set_rrsort_func("default_sort", sub { my
($a,$b)=($Net::DNS::a,$Net::DNS::b); $a->priority <=> $b->priority ||
$b->weight <=> $a->weight
}
set_rrsort_func needs to be called as a class method. The first argument is the attribute name on which the sorting will need to take
place. If you specify "default_sort" than that is the sort algorithm that will be used in the case that rrsort() is called without an RR
attribute as argument.
The second argument is a reference to a function that uses the variables $a and $b global to the "from Net::DNS"(!!)package for the
sorting. During the sorting $a and $b will contain references to objects from the class you called the set_prop_sort from. In other words,
you can rest assured that the above sorting function will only get Net::DNS::RR::SRV objects.
The above example is the sorting function that actually is implemented in SRV.
BUGS
This version of "Net::DNS::RR" does little sanity checking on user-created RR objects.
