[Pdns-users] Re: geobackend issues

FY!,

The issue turned out to be blank lines in the map file

# cat /usr/local/powerdns/etc/geo-maps/www
$RECORD www
$ORIGIN iso.xxxxxxxx.com.
#us
840 us

#in
356 in

0 geomain.xxxxxxxx.com.

The above wont work..

It has to be..

# cat /usr/local/powerdns/etc/geo-maps/www

$RECORD www
$ORIGIN iso.xxxxxxxx.com.
#us
840 us
#in
356 in
0 geomain.xxxxxxxx.com.

This works cool.
