[MaraDNS list] Possible bug found

Hello all,

 

We're using maradns for a couple of weeks now and i must say it runs
very stable, but i think i discovered a bug.

 

I must admit our setup is somewhat exotic, but it might concern other
configurations too..

 

We run mara 2.0.0.06 Win32 on Windows 2008 as an authorative server for
a couple hundred domains. The zone files are exported from a SQL
database and generated in the CSV1 format (because it looked simpler at
first glance)

 

I discovered when generating the records in the file in a specific order
and the first A record is a wildcard record, a request to this record
results in an error message from mara.

 

Example zone file:

 

Sexample.com.|3600|ns1...

Nexample.com.|3600|ns1...

Nexample.com.|3600|ns2...

A*.example.com.|3600|192.168....  this record will not resolve

A*.sub.example.com.|3600|10.0....

Awww.example.com.|3600|10.0....

...

 

I now generate the records in a different order, sorting the wildcard
records to the bottom positions. All works well now.

 

 

Regards,

 

Met vriendelijke groet,

Gerke van Duinen
