the owner of all installed files is a non-root user. This change
affects most packages that require special users or groups by making
them use the specified unprivileged user and group instead.
(1) Add two new variables PKG_GROUPS_VARS and PKG_USERS_VARS to
unprivileged.mk. These two variables are lists of other bmake
variables that define package-specific users and groups. Packages
that have user-settable variables for users and groups, e.g. apache
and APACHE_{USER,GROUP}, courier-mta and COURIER_{USER,GROUP},
etc., should list these variables in PKG_USERS_VARS and PKG_GROUPS_VARS
so that unprivileged.mk can know to set them to ${UNPRIVILEGED_USER}
and ${UNPRIVILEGED_GROUP}.
(2) Modify packages to use PKG_GROUPS_VARS and PKG_USERS_VARS.
PKGLOCALEDIR and which install their locale files directly under
${PREFIX}/${PKGLOCALEDIR} and sort the PLIST file entries. From now
on, pkgsrc/mk/plist/plist-locale.awk will automatically handle
transforming the PLIST to refer to the correct locale directory.
makeinfo if no native makeinfo executable exists. Honor TEXINFO_REQD
when determining whether the native makeinfo can be used.
* Remove USE_MAKEINFO and replace it with USE_TOOLS+=makeinfo.
* Get rid of all the "split" argument deduction for makeinfo since
the PLIST module already handles varying numbers of split info files
correctly.
NOTE: Platforms that have "makeinfo" in the base system should check
that the makeinfo entries of pkgsrc/mk/tools.${OPSYS}.mk are
correct.
This fixes vulnid:1747 (denial-of-service vulnerability).
18-Jan-2006 Don Moore <bboy@bboy.net> [1.1.0]
- Implemented RFC 2136 (DNS UPDATE). See the manual for usage instructions.
- Fixed minor bug in admin.php where if db_get_settings() failed, it might
display an error message without consistent formatting.
- Added two additional fields to the --verbose query log. The opcode of the
query (QUERY or UPDATE), and a quoted field containing a description of the
UPDATE performed, if the opcode was UPDATE.
- Updated contrib/stats.php to handle new log fields.
- Fixed bug in --dump-config -- if present, fields without default values
("no-listen", "soa-where", "rr-where", and "recursive") were not being
dumped.
- Made --dump-config dump ALL possible configuration options, even if no value
was originally specified. As such, MyDNS will no longer warn the user when
a config option doesn't have a value. It will be silently ignored.
- Including <inttypes.h> after a suggestion by Christian Tschenett, to help
things out on 64-bit platforms like OSX. If this creates problems on your
platform, please let me know.
- Modified admin.php to allow a backslash in the 'mbox' field, immediately
preceding a dot. This is used in DNS to indicate the presence of a dot in
the username part of the administrator's email address. There was an
additional bug report from Andreas Grip that MyDNS was replying with the
slashes doubled up in this case, but it appears to be a problem with the
"dig" program, not MyDNS.
- Fixed bug with "rr-where" clause -- conf.c was using "soa-where" instead.
David Darville first reported this bug. Michael Gile submitted it two
minutes later, with a patch.
- Added "create_domain.pl" to the contrib/ directory. Thanks to Gerard de
Brieder for this script. See contrib/README for more information.
- Fixed bug in src/lib/rr.c (mydns_rr_load) that caused a segfault if origin
was NULL (it was designed to allow NULL, but this version is the first to
ever call it in that way).
- Added support for NAPTR (RFC 2915) records. Users with existing MyDNS
databases will need to alter their tables to allow "NAPTR" in the "type"
column if they want to use NAPTR.
- Renamed library functions mydns_parse_rr() and mydns_parse_soa() to
mydns_rr_parse() and mydns_soa_parse(), for consistency.
- Library functions mydns_rr_dup() and mydns_soa_dup() now fail (terminating
the program) if out of memory.
- Moved routines that parse data for individual RR types (RP, SRV, and NAPTR)
into individual functions from mydns_rr_parse for clarity.
- Fixed bug where AXFR might transmit incorrect information if a FQDN is used
in the 'name' field.
- Fixed AXFR bug with ALIAS enabled. Thanks to Sven Wegener for the patch.
- Created file "README.mysql" to address various problems common while
compiling with MySQL support.
- Fixed "use of cast expressions as lvalues is deprecated" warning (caused
compilation abort with --enable-debug).
- Added hostname to beginning of SIGUSR1 status output.
- Renamed "update" column in the soa table to "update_acl"; how could I be so
stupid as to name a column "update"?!
- Fixed a critical denial-of-service vulnerability.
slightly modified by me.
MyDNS is a free DNS server for UNIX. It was implemented from scratch
and is designed to serve records directly from an SQL database
(currently either MySQL or PostgreSQL).
Its primary objectives are stability, security, interoperability, and
speed, though not necessarily in that order.
MyDNS does not include recursive name service, nor a resolver library.
It is primarily designed for organizations with many zones and/or
resource records who desire the ability to perform real-time dynamic
updates on their DNS data via MySQL.
MyDNS starts and is ready to answer questions immediately, no matter
how much DNS data you have in the database. It is very fast and
memory- efficient. It includes complete documentation, including a
manual and a FAQ.
MyDNS supports a few frills, including round robin DNS, dynamic load
balancing, and outgoing AXFR for non-MyDNS nameservers.
MyDNS is licensed under the GNU General Public License.
This package provides the PostgreSQL-based version.
