I'm migration from PowerDNS using AXFR and some of the domains fall on
Section 2.4 having CNAME on top domains.
Is there a way to ignore the warning and receive the query?
An example of troublesome domain transfer:
Jun 30 11:33:40 p-01 knot[2930]: info: [strangedomain.com] AXFR, incoming,
127.0.0.1@53: starting
Jun 30 11:33:40 p-01 knot[2930]: warning: [strangedomain.com] semantic
check, node 'strangedomain.com.' (CNAME, node contains other records than
RRSIG and NSEC/NSEC3)
Jun 30 11:33:40 p-01 knot[2930]: error: [strangedomain.com] AXFR, incoming,
127.0.0.1@53: failed (failed)
Jun 30 11:33:40 p-01 knot[2930]: error: [strangedomain.com] transfer,
failed (no active master)
I'm running on Gentoo compiling Knotd 1.6.4 from source w/ no special flags.
Thanks in advance!

Hello everyone!
CZ.NIC Labs just released a final version of Knot DNS 2.0.
There are only a few changes since the release candidate. The synchronization
of zone file can be now disabled; knsupdate was improved to accept TSIG
algorithm in interactive mode; and some small bugs have been resolved.
I believe you are tuned to this channel and it makes a little sense to repeat
all the new features we put into 2.0 in details. Just to sum up the most
important things:
- Knot DNS 2.0 uses new configuration format based on YAML. The new format
adds zone templates, improves remotes and ACLs specification, and in general
makes the configuration more readable. You can convert your existing 1.6
configuration using the knot1to2 utility.
- We have a new DNSSEC backend. It is based on GnuTLS instead of OpenSSL. And
it contains basic support for KASP (Key And Signature Policy). At the
moment, it can generate initial zone signing keys and perform automatic ZSK
rollover.
For more details, please, take a look at the full change log, previous
release e-mails, documentation, or just ask.
We are looking forward to your feedback, feature requests, and even bug
reports. And thank you for using Knot DNS.

Hello everyone!
On behalf of CZ.NIC Labs, I would like to announce Knot DNS 1.6.4. The patch
release contains a bunch of non-critical bug fixes and a few improvements. The
update is recommended but not necessary.
Lots of changes are related to zone transfers. We resolved a problem where an
incoming NOTIFY message was lost during ongoing transfer of the same zone. The
AA flag in AXFR/IXFR queries is no longer set as recommended by the RFC. And
in multi-master environment, if a master server is not available then the
other master servers are tried immediately without waiting a SOA retry time.
The kdig utility was also updated. A new '+generic' option causes printing of
all resource records as if they were unknown records (according to RFC 3597).
The '+noall' option now hides the TSIG section. And the Dnstap SocketProtocol
is logged correctly if there is a failover from UDP to TCP.
The zone parsing and dumping was improved as well. The zone parser can now
read TXT/SPF strings longer than 255 characters which are automatically
chopped into multiple strings. And the zone dumps will no longer print class
name with the SOA record, which unifies the behavior across all resource
record types, making the text processing of a zone file easier.
Last but not least, we have resolved two build issues: Knot DNS can be now
compiled against LibreSSL instead of OpenSSL without patching. And fast zone
parser is forcibly disabled when compiling with Clang (this is a workaround
for a bug in Clang optimizer which emits invalid code for the scanner).
Thank you for attention. You can grab the sources as usual.

Hi,
We've been running Knot 1.6.3 as a slave server and it's been working well. However, I notice that a "dig" against this slave for a domain does not return an "ADDITIONAL" section, but the same query against another slave that runs BIND does return one. I couldn't find any Knot configuration directive that would control this. Is there something I missed or additional configuration needed elsewhere to make the ADDITIONAL info available?
Thanks,
Chuck
Hello list!
The first release candidate of Knot DNS 2.0 by CZ.NIC Labs is available.
The most significant changes since 2.0.0-beta are related to the server
configuration. We have renamed a few configuration options for the sake of
consistency and intuitiveness. And we have significantly improved the way how
remotes and ACLs are defined.
In prior version, each remote was assigned just one address, which led to
quite long configuration files. The updated version allows specification of
multiple addresses (and multiple TSIG keys), making the configuration file
shorter and more readable.
We have also added a basic support for zone file name patterns. At the moment,
you can use the '%s' pattern in the template/file configuration option and the
pattern will be substituted by a zone name. We would like to add another
patterns in future. Feel free to let us know which patterns you would find
useful.
The 2.0.0-rc1 version also contains all bug fixes and improvements, which are
included in the upcoming 1.6.4 stable release.
And the icing on the cake is Bash and ZSH completion scripts for keymgr.
Please, give the release candidate a try. We are looking forward to your
feedback and bug reports. And as always, thank you for using Knot DNS.
