[Pdns-users] pdns / gmysql / serial-bug with signed-int

[Harald Kapper]

hi
well, I noticed just a pdns-bug in the serial-generation for domains - we have
in our SOA-content field in a gmysql-backend-store:

ns5.kapper.net dns.kapper.net 2641686402 86400 7200 1814400 3600

(yeah, don't ask, it has to be this serial)

but in the "notified_serial" field for this domain it states: 2147483647

I "just for the fun" tried to inject the serial 2147483648 - but it seems the
above serial is max(serial) that powerdns can support... it's obvious that this
is the signed-integer instead of an unsigned one that should have been used.

anyone got a fix for this?

and as I'm in the asking-mood :)
anyone got an idea when ever this gmysql-definition is used:

gmysql-delete-zone-query	delete from records where domain_id=%d

it seems like there would be a way to delete a zone vie some command, but I have
on idea under what circuumstances this command would be executed.

thank you in advance,
