[Pdns-users] pdns-recursor query logging of cached requests

[Marco Kleefman]

Hi,

For compliancy reasons we are configuring query logging on our PowerDNS
recursor instances (running 4.7.3).

For normal queries I see source-ip and content of DNS question. Example
logging:

pdns_recursor[12056]: 2 [395002/1] question for 'www.exampledomain.com|A'
from 10.11.12.13:56765

For a cached query I only see this in my (journald + syslog) logging:

pdns_recursor[12056]: 3 question answered from packet cache tag=0 from
173.172.171.170:51200

I tried increasing loglevel parameter to 7 (debug) but no additional
logging becomes available for cached requests.

Does anybody have any tips how to log the content of a query which gets
answered from the cache?

Regards,

Marco
