[Pdns-users] soa-minimum-ttl not working

[Helge Milde]

Hi!

I recently found out that our PowerDNS server is using a TTL value of 3600 on our DNS records, which is too low.
As you can see in the example below, the SOA specifies a TTL value of 86400, which is where we want it to be. I've also changed soa-minimum-ttl to 86400 in /etc/powerdns/pdns.conf and restarted the server, but the records still shows up with TTL 3600.
Have I stumbeled upon a bug, or is this just pure ignorance from my part :-)?

PS. We're using an LDAP backend, and I know there's a dNSTTL attribute I could use for this, but then we'll have to change the schema from dNSDomain to dNSDomain2, which can be a pain.

=== Example ===
$ dig 19.no @217.171.199.98
;; QUESTION SECTION:
;19.no.                         IN      A
;; ANSWER SECTION:
19.no.                  3600    IN      A       217.171.199.100

$ dig soa 19.no @217.171.199.98
;; QUESTION SECTION:
;19.no.                         IN      SOA
;; ANSWER SECTION:
19.no.                  3600    IN      SOA     ns1.halden.org. hostmaster.halden.org. 2009112701 10800 3600 604800 86400
