Hello,
I have setup a KNOT dns server but I'm having troubles with the UDP
queries. The server is not answering to the UDP queries but it is
answering to queries in TCP.
The server is running on a CentOS release 6.3 (Final) and the
configuration file is the following.
*************knot.conf***********
system {
identity "Yet.another.server";
nsid "Yet.another.server";
storage "/opt/knot_run/knot-minimal";
pidfile "/opt/knot_run/knot.pid";
user root;
}
interfaces {
ipv4 { address 127.0.0.1@53; }
ipv4 { address 193.137.197.25@53; }
}
remotes {
ns-test01 { address 193.136.192.86@53; }
ns-test02 { address 193.136.192.87@53; }
ns-test03 { address 193.137.196.30@53; }
ns-test04 { address 193.137.196.31@53; }
}
zones {
zonetest-01.dns.pt {
file "/opt/knot_run/zones/zonetest01";
xfr-in ns-test01;
notify-in ns-test01;
}
zonetest-06.dns.pt {
file "/opt/knot_run/zones/zonetest06";
}
}
log {
file "/opt/knot_run/log/knot.log" { any all; }
}

The output of the log file is

Greetings. This seems a bit odd. I have a zone file with:
=====
$TTL 6
test79.example.com. IN SOA foo.example.com. dns.test79.example.com. ( 201209150 5m 1m 2w 5m )
test79.example.com. IN NS foo.example.com.
test79.example.com. IN TYPE79 \# 4 deadface
=====
Trying to compile it gives:
=====
Parsing file '/home/dns/Files/foo.conf', origin 'test79.example.com.' ...
/home/dns/Files/foo.conf:4: error: bad unknown RDATA
Parser finished with error, not dumping the zone!
error: Compilation of 'test79.example.com.' failed, knot-zcompile return code was '1'
=====
This zone file works fine in BIND, NSD, and PowerDNS. It seems that either Knot cannot use the standard mechanism for defining unknown RRtypes (RFC 3597), or it maybe has a different syntax. Clues are appreciated.

Hi!
I run Knot with option
apn@knot-test:/home/apn>grep user /usr/local/etc/knot/knot.conf
user bind.dns;
apn@knot-test:/home/apn>ps uaxww | grep knot
bind 9925 0.0 0.8 33760 8736 ?? Ss 4:03PM 0:00.07
/usr/local/sbin/knotd -d -c /usr/local/etc/knot/knot.conf
apn@knot-test:/home/apn>knotc -V

Everything is fine except for one: I can't control Knot via knotc
under my account and have to raise my privileges.

I believe that is because of using of kill(2) in pid_running(). So I'm
wondering how unprivileged user can send commands to Knot?
Thanks in advance.
