playing with 9.10.3/Keyper+ and ECDSA

2016-05-09 Thread Vincent Levigneron
Hi,

I was wondering if some of you have already did some experiments with
9.10.3 and the AEP Keyper+ (openssl-1.01l patched) in order to create
ECDSA keys and sign zone. I was surprised I was able without issues to
create key objectss in the HSM with command :

> pkcs11-keygen -a ECDSAP256SHA256 -p  -l TESTECC1

but when I try to create keys from this key objects, I have an
unexpected message:

> dnssec-keyfromlabel -a ECDSAP256SHA256 -l TESTECC1 -E pkcs11 test 
dnssec-keyfromlabel: fatal: failed to get key test/ECDSAP256SHA256: algorithm 
is unsupported

It is strange it is supported by pkcs11-keygen but not by
dnssec-keyfromlabel. This is the only algorithm with that kind of
behaviour.

This is my first test with ECDSA, am I missing something ??? If I don't
use the Keyper+, I can create ECDSA keys and sign zones with that keys,
strange isn't it ?

Regards.

Vincent.

BIND 9.11 / edns-client-subnet

2016-05-09 Thread Nico CARTRON
Hi everyone,

I was wondering whether some folks on the mailing list had a look at the ECS 
implementation in BIND 9.11,
and if they had any feedback to share?

Cheers,

Perhaps you should tell us how it works for you, what your testing has
found, and contribute to the development of great open source software?

Thanks!

well, I am just starting the tests now, so cannot tell - yet :)

I will definitely report once I have progressed, but in the meantime, any 
feedback from others would be appreciated.

BTW Bert, does PowerDNS support it? ;)
I saw (https://github.com/PowerDNS/pdns/issues/573) that’s it’s on git master, 
does that mean it’s publicly available?

Let me comment on my snark a bit before I promise to no longer pollute this
technical list with such remarks.  Any appliance vendor is a net loss of
revenue and reputation for the open source world unless you contribute back.
It does not sustain our software otherwise.

And in fact, by branding BIND (which is a magnificent collection of DNS
functionality, which you ship) as "the most common victim" of security
issues, you are hurting open source. [1] Your non-public sales stories are
worse.

Given that, I found it a bit rich for you (from a non-company email
address!) to ask the community that supplies you with free software to give
you some free testing too.  

It would be great to see some testing from you perhaps. For example, how DID
you achieve 27 million queries/second?

ouch, did not see this one coming.
Let me answer to your remarks below.

revenue and reputation for the open source world unless you contribute back.

Just because you’ve not heard of something does not mean this does not happen.
And bare in mind that we’re using other non-DNS softwares, so we contributed to 
other fields.



And in fact, by branding BIND (which is a magnificent collection of DNS 
functionality, which you ship) as "the most common victim" of security 
issues, you are hurting open source. [1] Your non-public sales stories are

I don’t see how calling BIND “the most common victim” is hurting open source.
We push for software diversity, which is always good.



Given that, I found it a bit rich for you (from a non-company email 
address!) to ask the community that supplies you with free software to give 
you some free testing too.  
I’ve always used my private email address for mailing lists, that’s easier.
And unless I re-read my previous email incorrectly, I did not ask for “some 
free testing”,
but for feedback from others.



It would be great to see some testing from you perhaps. For example, how DID 
you achieve 27 million queries/second?
That’s 17 million QPS.
If you’re around at the RIPE meeting in Copenhagen, I’ll be more than happy to 
discuss it with you.

Thank you, but I did not receive this off-list reply.

With the above being said, can we please come back to the original topic and 
not pollute this list?
We can continue off-list or talk in Copenhagen if you wish to.___

Maintain task frequency

2016-05-09 Thread Jorge Alberto Martínez Melo

Hello bind users,

I am preparing some scripts to maintain some cache dns servers and I am
thinking about the most appropriate frequency of these tasks:
- to generate the root hints file (root cache).
- to clear the cache with rndc flush
- to generate the stats file with rndc stat

Thank you in advance for your comments

Never.  You'll get new root hints every time you upgrade, if the 
hints have in fact changed.  Even if you don't upgrade, it doesn't 
matter.  Having a wrong address in hints means that you might try 
contacting a bad IP address at startup.

Once you have found an actual root server you'll never go back to the 
hints.  And you can find actual root servers listed in hints files 
which date back far before the BIND 9 project's existence.

For ease of management you might want to remove the "zone '.'" 
statements from your recursive resolvers.  That way you'll only use 
the built-in hints, and every time you upgrade, such as for the 
latest security issue, you've got the new hints.

There's a recent article at the ISC KB about root hints, you might 
want to read that also.  It should be easy to find at 
https://kb.isc.org/ , searching for "root hints".

> - to clear the cache with rndc flush

Oh my!  Never, unless you have some good reason to do it.  Why do you 
think that should be a scheduled task?

> - to generate the stats file with rndc stat

Never.  See the statistics-channels functionality, which is far 
superior to the "rndc stats" output, in real time as needed, and 
designed to be easily parsed by automated tools.

If I interpret your question correctly - here are my answers:

1) root hints - There is nothing you need to do, as BIMD will get
the information when it starts, based on the hints
that are built into the code.  And the hints information
rarely changes.

2) Clear cache - There is no need to clear the cache, as BIND will
 remove automatically any entry whose TTL has
 expired.

3) Generating stets - I have no answer for this.  You can generate
  stats at any interval you want.  The interval
  might depend upon  how busy the DNS server is.
