Now that PowerDNS 4.0.4 has been released, making the API finally bug-free enough for us to properly support it, we provide our first release in the 0.2.x series, supporting PowerDNS 4.0.4+.

This release works only on PowerDNS 4.0.4+. For PowerDNS 3.x, please use the 0.1.x release series.

This release has some behavioural changes from the 0.1.x release series related to the handling of CNAME/DNAME/MX/NS/PTR record contents. Now:

  • Domain names in these records should be entered fully-qualified (terminated with ".")
  • If not terminated with "." it is assumed to be under the current zone
  • "@" can be used to point to the zone name on its own, as it is under normal zone file formats (eg. bind format)
  • The UI attempts to assist with getting this right by showing the resulting FQDN value of what you have entered
