[dnsdist] send command from command line

[Alejandro Adroher Mellado]

Hi Remi, 

Thanks a lot for your answer. 
Also if I'm executing the command on the server I need so set that key? I thought that the use of setKey and makeKey was not really important if I had no plan to set secured communication with dnsdist. Maybe I'm wrong.

Question: There is possible to access dnsdist from another computer? I execute the client connection always from the server computer.

I have just installed libsodium-1.0.8 and restarted dnsdist, but I'm still getting the same result.
> makeKey()
setKey("plaintext")

Have a nice day Remi.

Good morning to all!

It looks like a secret key mismatch. Could you check that the dnsdist server and client use the same configuration file, or at least have the same key (look for setKey() in the configuration file)?

Anyway you should have more information in the server's logs. For a key mismatch, you can expect to see something like:

Got an exception in client connection from 127.0.0.1:XXXXX: Could not decrypt message
