[Pdns-users] Bad cache TTL with pdns-resursor

Hi Michael,

The SOA will indeed probably not go to zero because it will have been
renewed in that time. PowerDNS Recursor 3.3 and later take care to decrement
the TTL when serving contents from the packet cache.

So when you don't see it going down in 3.2, that is correct, and maybe a bit
strange, but not a bug.
