Hi,
I'm running an instance of knotd for testing. It is installed with the
official ubuntu debian package from kont-dns.cz. When I start the knot
service, using systemctl, it takes a very long time to start up
(sometimes 30 min). This seems to be related to the systemd unit which
is set to type 'notify', and the fact that knot after starting up
wants to re-sign all the zones which needs that before notifying. If I
change the type to 'simple' or 'forked' (together with the knotd -d
option), the start command returns more immediately. My test system
has about 800 zonefiles in it. A large number of them want to be
re-signed after each startup.
My question is, what is the recommended way to start, stop and restart
the server? Also, after starting I cannot find the /run/knot/knot.sock
file, which is needed when stopping the service with 'knotc stop'.
Knot version: 3.4.1-cznic.1~focal (debian package from knot-dns.cz)
OS: Linux 5.4.0/Ubuntu 20.04 Focal amd64.
Kind regards,
Erik Østlyngen

Hello Daniel,
Are the EPEL packages no longer available (?), I'm stuck at 3.3.9. There have
been no updates since then. Or can you download the .rpm from somewhere else
now?
