Just wondering. You mention you're using RHEL6; are you also getting messages in 'dmesg' about connection tracking tables being full? You may need some 'NOTRACK' rules in your iptables. STUART BROWNE Senior Unix Administrator, Network Administrator, Database Ad

.ibm, .cisco, .apple, .google, .sucks, .melbourne and many hundreds of others have been applied for and hundreds already delegated into the root. '.hp' was deemed too short (must be at least 3 characters). See https://gtldresult.icann.org/application-result/applicationstatus for the new TLD's

Bob, Some date and record number details from one of my systems, with 'max-journal-size: 100m'. Yes, I've changed the zone names.. ;) NOTE: Add/Del numbers show total / non-dnssec-or-soa related update numbers. 'zone1' is a monitoring test zone that has sub-zone delegation changes a few times

RE: Simple max-journal-size question

2014-06-11 Thread Stuart Browne
This one is a bit of a fun one to understand. Whilst setting this seems to suggest "This will be the biggest size the journal will ever get to", it isn't. This suggests to bind to flush the journal when it reaches this size. If the journal is busy however, the flush will be delayed until such

RE: Generic reasons for recursive performance not to peg CPU?

2014-01-12 Thread Stuart Browne
Wouldn't it be something along the lines about recursive using cache-in-memory where the authoritative is using lookups of zone-in-memory? The algorithms are probably different. I've not looked at the code though. Stuart > -Original Message- > From: bind-users-bounces+stuart.browne=aus

Throughput drop using smaller zones

2013-02-27 Thread Stuart Browne
Hi, I've been doing some throughput testing of BIND for both signed and non-signed zones of various sizes and have noticed some odd behaviour. Using the 'dnsperf' tool to perform the testing, I see that smaller (signed) zones perform considerably worse than larger zones when queried with +DO.
