Hello,

Anyone succeeded installing PowerDNS + Geo-Backend?

I'm migrating from Bind to PowerDNS but I need to get Geo working...

I'm using "launch=bind,geo" at pdns.conf, starts OK:

...

....

but geo is not working for me (nslookup):
 > www1.test.com
Server:         xxx.xxx.xxx.44
Address:        xxx.xxx.xxx.44#53

www1.test.com   canonical name = geo.test.com.
================================================
and the bind zone:

$ORIGIN .
$TTL 10800      ; 3 hours
test.com.       IN      SOA     ns.test.com. admin.test.com. (
                       2008020400   ; Serial
                       10800           ; Refresh after 3 hours
                       3600            ; Retry after 1 hour
                       604800          ; Expire after 1 week
                       86400 )         ; Minimum TTL of 1 day
test.com.       IN      NS      ns.test.com.

test.com.               IN      MX      1       mx.test.com.
test.com.               IN      MX      5       mx2.test.com.

www.test.com.           IN      A       192.168.100.5
ns.test.com.           IN      A       192.168.100.10
mx.test.com.          IN      A       192.168.100.20
mx2.test.com.         IN      A       192.168.100.21
mail.test.com.          IN      CNAME   mx.test.com.

www1.test.com.          IN      CNAME   geo.test.com.
pdns.test.com.          IN      A       xxx.xxx.xxx.44
geo.test.com.           IN      NS      pdns.test.com.

sa.iso.test.com.                        IN A 192.168.100.40
sa.iso.test.com.                        IN A 192.168.100.41

eu.iso.test.com.                        IN A 192.168.100.50
eu.iso.test.com.                        IN A 192.168.100.51

Anyone can help? is there any good how-to about this?

The test.com is of course fake, not real IP's, just a test environment 
prior to migrate bind.

Thanks in advance
Francisco
