03:09 <bramford> In case nobody is aware, the TLS cert for mirage.io has expired

10:45 <mrgrieves> hi, quick question about the ocaml-dns lib. Is support for EDNS & DNSSEC still non-existant ? Also, are there plans for ipv6? looking at the code it gives the impression only ipv4 is supported but wanted to confirm with you guys

10:51 <hannes> mrgrieves: this is all true - no EDNS, no DNSSEC, no IPv6

10:52 <hannes> mrgrieves: in other news, I'm close to finish another DNS lib with (at least) EDNS support :)

10:52 <hannes> mrgrieves: and both support IPv6 entries (AAAA records), but do not talk via IPv6 (MirageOS + IPv6 seems to be not well tested / working AFAICT)

11:25 <mrgrieves> great, thanks for confirming hannes

11:29 <mrgrieves> one more small question before I go (probably not so mirage but more dns specific). when I start the dns app that comes with mirage skeleton I get a couple of warnings in the logs when the data/test.zone gets parsed i.e. "Warning (<string> line 47): Converting MD to MX"

11:29 <mort___> IIRC MD is deprecated now, so gets converted to MX

11:30 <mrgrieves> yes that is what I goot from RFC 973

11:30 <mrgrieves> but wanted to confirm if in fact the expected behaviour was to convert the record and reply accordingly

11:32 <mort___> ah, good question. i think so :) rfc 1035 says MD is "obsolete - use MX"

11:32 <mort___> (section 3.2.2)

11:33 <mrgrieves> thanks mort___ , thank you guys!

11:33 <mort___> and later, "MD is obsolete. See the definition of MX and [RFC-974] for details of

11:33 <mort___> the new scheme. The recommended policy for dealing with MD RRs found in

11:33 <mort___> a master file is to reject them, or to convert them to MX RRs with a

11:33 <mort___> preference of 0."

11:33 <mort___> np

11:33 <hannes> (my personal intuition is different - a DNS server should complain about invalid/obsolete records, but not convert them into something else)

11:34 <mort___> yeah, as quoted above, rejection would be the other recommended policy

11:34 <hannes> (imho conversion is violating POLA https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Principle_of_least_astonishment)

11:35 <mrgrieves> right, some clarification here is needed: I'm not saying it's replying back with MX, just wanted to get an idea before testing

11:37 <mrgrieves> the warning gives the impression records are converted but I haven't tested this

11:38 <mrgrieves> I'll come back when I get the chance to do some more testing
