From otto.moerbeek at open-xchange.com Wed Jun 9 08:37:11 2021 From: otto.moerbeek at open-xchange.com (Otto Moerbeek) Date: Wed, 9 Jun 2021 10:37:11 +0200 (CEST) Subject: [Pdns-announce] PowerDNS Recursor 4.4.4 and 4.5.2 Released Message-ID: <1937276843.4065.1623227831912@appsuite-guard.open-xchange.com> Hello! We are proud to announce the release of PowerDNS Recursor 4.4.4. and 4.5.2. Both releases contain mostly smaller bug fixes. For the 4.5.2 release the default value of nsec3-max-iterations[1] has been lowered to 150, in accordance with new guidelines[2] and in coordination with other vendors. Furthermore, an issue affecting the "refresh almost expired[3]" function has been fixed. Please refer to the change logs for the 4.4.4[4] and 4.5.2[5] release for additional details. Please send us all feedback and issues you might have via the mailing list[6], or in case of a bug, via GitHub[7]. The tarballs (4.4.4[8], 4.5.2[9]) and signatures (4.4.4[10], 4.5.2[11]) are available from our download server[12] and packages for several distributions are available from our repository[13]. With the previous 4.5.1 release, the 4.2.x releases will be EOL and the 4.3.x and 4.4.x releases will go into critical fixes only mode. Consult the EOL policy[14] for more details. We would also like to announce that with this release we will stop supporting systems using 32-bit time. This includes 32-bit Linux platforms like arm6, arm7, and i386. We are grateful to the PowerDNS community for the reporting of bugs, issues, feature requests, and especially to the submitters of fixes and implementations of features. -Otto and the PowerDNS Team References 1. https://docs.powerdns.com/recursor/settings.html#nsec3-max-iterations 2. https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/draft-hardaker-dnsop-nsec3-guidance 3. https://docs.powerdns.com/recursor/settings.html#refresh-on-ttl-perc 4. https://doc.powerdns.com/recursor/changelog/4.4.html#change-4.4.4 5. https://doc.powerdns.com/recursor/changelog/4.5.html#change-4.5.2 6. https://mailman.powerdns.com/mailman/listinfo/pdns-users 7. https://github.com/PowerDNS/pdns/issues/new/choose 8. https://downloads.powerdns.com/releases/pdns-recursor-4.4.4.tar.bz2 9. https://downloads.powerdns.com/releases/pdns-recursor-4.5.2.tar.bz2 10. https://downloads.powerdns.com/releases/pdns-recursor-4.4.4.tar.bz2.sig 11. https://downloads.powerdns.com/releases/pdns-recursor-4.5.2.tar.bz2.sig 12. https://downloads.powerdns.com/releases/ 13. https://repo.powerdns.com/ 14. https://docs.powerdns.com/recursor/appendices/EOL.html -- kind regards, Otto Moerbeek PowerDNS Developer Email: otto.moerbeek at open-xchange.com ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Open-Xchange AG, Hohenzollernring 72, 50672 Cologne, District Court Cologne HRB 95366 Managing Board: Andreas Gauger, Carsten Dirks, Dirk Valbert, Frank Hoberg, Stephan Martin Chairman of the Board: Richard Seibt PowerDNS.COM BV, Koninginnegracht 14L, 2514 AA Den Haag, The Netherlands Managing Director: Robert Brandt, Carsten Dirks ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...

Today we released the first Beta version for Authoritative Server version 4.5.0. Version 4.5.0 mostly brings small improvements and fixes, but there is one notable new feature: the zone cache. The zone cache allows PowerDNS to keep a list of zones in memory, updated periodically. With this cache, PowerDNS can avoid hitting the database with queries for unknown domains. In some setups, and some attack scenarios, this can make a serious performance difference. In beta1, the zone cache is enabled by default. A full list of changes can be found in the [1]changelog. Please make sure to read the [2]Upgrade Notes before upgrading. With version 4.5.0, support for platforms with a time_t type smaller than 64 bits is dropped. This means that we do not build packages for Raspberry Pi OS. The [3]tarball ([4]signature) is available at [5]downloads.powerdns.com. Packages for various distributions are available from [6]repo.powerdns.com. Please send us all feedback and issues you might have via the [7]mailing list, or in case of a bug, via [8]GitHub. 1. https://doc.powerdns.com/authoritative/changelog/4.5.html#change-4.5.0-beta1 2. https://doc.powerdns.com/authoritative/upgrading.html 3. https://downloads.powerdns.com/releases/pdns-4.5.0-beta1.tar.bz2 4. https://downloads.powerdns.com/releases/pdns-4.5.0-beta1.tar.bz2.sig 5. https://downloads.powerdns.com/releases/ 6. https://repo.powerdns.com/ 7. https://mailman.powerdns.com/mailman/listinfo/pdns-users 8. https://github.com/PowerDNS/pdns/issues/new/choose Kind regards, -- Peter van Dijk PowerDNS.COM BV - https://www.powerdns.com/ -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...
