[Pdns-users] pdns_recursor brings both old/new A for L.root-servers.net

[Koh-ichi Ito]

Hi,

I found that pdns_recursor returns both old/new A for
L.root-servers.net when no hint-file. If obsolete root-hint
is given, identical problem is observed.

"PowerDNS Recursor 3.1.4 $Id: pdns_recursor.cc 917 2006-11-07 12:23:51Z ahu $"

# when specify right hint-file

kohi at yuina[2]% grep hint-file /proj/powerdns/etc/recursor.conf
hint-file=/proj/powerdns/etc/namedb/named.root
kohi at yuina[3]% dig +short +norec @localhost l.root-servers.net
199.7.83.42

# when depend on hard coding

kohi at yuina[4]% grep hint-file /proj/powerdns/etc/recursor.conf
#hint-file=/proj/powerdns/etc/namedb/named.root
kohi at yuina[5]% dig +short +norec @localhost l.root-servers.net
198.32.64.12
