PowerDNS Administrator 1.1.6 (Default branch)

ImagePDNS-Admin, or PowerDNS Administrator, is a Web-based script which aids in administering domains and records for the PowerDNS SQL name server software. PDNS-Admin is targeted mainly toward individual domain owners, but should be robust enough to be used in a larger capacity by an ISP or other big host. For those who may not know, PowerDNS is a domain name server application, much like BIND, but offering alternative backends for the storage of domain information.License: GNU General Public License v2Changes:
A missing language definition was fixed. A SOA serial update is needed to trim whitespace characters, the record entry would keep growing. An issue where it was not possible to delete a supermaster was fixed. Missing log messages were added to the logging functions. Unnecessary skin upgrade code was removed. Better handling was provided for user created domains. Default SOA expiry time was raised to three weeks based on diagnostic recommendations. The ability to set the Master IP for a Slave domain was added along with a "Your Console" link on the universal template for all users.Image

REC_CONTROL(1)							  [FIXME: manual]						    REC_CONTROL(1)

NAME
rec_control - control pdns_recursor SYNOPSIS
rec_control [--help] [--socket-dir] [--socket-pid] command .. DESCRIPTION
rec_control(1) allows the operator to control a running instance of the pdns_recursor. The commands that can be passed to the recursor are described on http://doc.powerdns.com/rec-control.html EXAMPLES
To stop the recursor by hand, run: # rec_control quit To dump the cache to disk, execute: # rec_control dump-cache /tmp/the-cache OPTIONS
--help provide this helpful message --socket-dir Where the controlsocket will live --socket-pid When running in SMP mode, pid of pdns_recursor to control --timeout Number of seconds to wait for the remote PowerDNS Recursor to respond. Set to 0 for infinite. COMMANDS
dump-cache filename Dumps the entire cache to the filename mentioned. This file should not exist already, PowerDNS will refuse to overwrite it. While dumping, the recursor will not answer questions. get statistic Retrieve a statistic. For items that can be queried, see http://doc.powerdns.com/recursor-stats.html get-all Retrieve all known statistics. ping Check if server is alive. quit Request shutdown of the recursor reload-zones Reload authoritative and forward zones. Retains current configuration in case of errors. top-remotes Shows the top-20 most active remote hosts. Statistics are over the last remotes-ringbuffer-entries queries, which defaults to 0. wipe-cache domain0 [domain1] Wipe entries from the cache. This is useful if, for example, an important server has a new IP address, but the TTL has not yet expired. Multiple domain names can be passed. Note that you must terminate a domain with a .! So to wipe powerdns.org, issue rec_control wipe-cache powerdns.org.. Versions beyond 3.1 don't need the trailing dot. Consider not only wiping www.domain.com. but also domain.com., as the cached nameservers or target of CNAME may continue to be undesired. BUGS
