[Pdns-users] LUA script to change TTL based on answer?

[jahlives]

okay found that I can use postresolve to manipulate the responses

function postresolve(dq)
	local records = dq:getRecords()
	for k,v in pairs(records) do
		if v.type == pdns.DS and v.place ~= 1
		then
			v.ttl=86400
		end
	end
	dq:setRecords(records)
	return true
end

but now the problem is how to define the case where TTL has to be
changed. The only thing I found so far in the response is the fact that
no answer section is returned. So I thought place should be right, so I
wanted to check if there is no answer section (~= 1) and change TTL
then. Seems not have any effect on the DS queries which have not answer
section in responses.

Am I missing something or is it simply not possible the way I thought?

Thanks
