Hi,
we've had knot in use for years now and are still using version 1.6.7. I
We've recently migrated e-mail to exchange online. I've been asked to update the MX record in the zone to point to mail.protection.outlook.com.
I initially tried to simply replace the current value by mail.protection.outlook.com but then the name of the zone is added to the value. This is not a valid record.
I see no way to update the MX record to this value. Any suggestions?
Thanks in advance for the feedback.
Kind regards,
Dirk
There is an Internet draft (
https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/draft-koch-dnsop-dnssec-operator-chan…)
that describes a mechanism to facilitate the operation consisting of
changing the DNS delegation for a signed DNS zone. Since this is a draft, I
do not expect for Knot to provide support for it already (in fact, I know
it does not, for it involves signing a DNSKEY RR, which Knot does not do)
but I wonder whether this is something that is in Knot's roadmap?
Dear Guru(s),
If the following questions have already been asked, I do apologize and
would very much appreciate the pointers to where I can read the answer(s).
I am currently ‘running’ a DNSsec-signed zone using Alg-8 [RSA/SHA2-256].
However, I would very much like to DNSsec-sign and publish my zone with two
different algorithms (say, Alg-8 [RSA/SHA2-256] + Alg-13
[ECDSA-P256/SHA2-256]) *simultaneously*,
in case the client-validators out there cannot process one algorithm or the
other (never mind that they both are the ‘MUST’ in RFC 8624).
It also is an opportunity to train myself in case I need to ‘add’ the third
one (say, Alg-15 [ED25519]) or ‘migrate’ to the Alg-13 + Alg-15 combination
in the future.
Background Information:
1. I have a ‘hidden server’ acting as ‘The Signer’.
2. ‘The Signer’ feeds the already-signed zone to the visible ‘Primary
Server’.
3. The ‘Primary Server’, in turn, feeds all other ‘Secondary Servers’, some
of which are not under my control.
4. Unfortunately, currently none of the above servers is a Knot, but I am
switching The Signer to Knot.
My questions are:
5. What will be the correct configuration for The Knot Signer? I don’t mind
maintaining two completely separated ‘Signed Trees’ of the same zone,
unless cross-signing (the keys) between algorithms is the best practice.
6. Will there be any special configuration for the ‘Primary/Secondary
Servers’? If so, I will then need to inform admins of the servers outside
my control.
Thank you for any help you can offer, both on and off the mailing list.
Gratefully,
Pirawat.
