The biggest issues I've found so far:
.- The mx entries are wrongly created, and break the dns zone. (You can add them only editing the db or using the non-official ispcp CLI)
.- The timestamp doesn't update when creating new records on a domain alias.

Hello ;
- The timestamp doesn't update when creating new records on a domain alias. (Fixed in trunk)

.- The mx entries are wrongly created, and break the dns zone. (You can add them only editing the db or using the non-official ispcp CLI) (Will be fixed)

yes, sorry for that. 1.0.6 was been only security fix release with small tools update.

RE: manual DNS control - kingxerxes - 08-11-2010 09:57 AM

i see, do you have any release schedule for 1.0.7?

RE: manual DNS control - Nuxwin - 08-11-2010 10:03 AM

For now, the team think about the next release. Depending of the final decision, we'll release the last trunk state as RC release or as 1.0.7 with a set of already fixed bugs (not included the fixes for custom DNS records feature) or others things like this.

The trunk has very bigs changes and bugs-fixes but all must be correctly tested to avoid any surprises. That for why we should think before take any decisions about the next release content.

RE: manual DNS control - kingxerxes - 08-11-2010 10:10 AM

that is fair enough. do you have any idea when the DNS element will be resolved? if not, can you reccomend a way to host domains on the ispCP system and allow them to have custom DNS entries?

You can manually edit the zone files. It's a bit tricky but works perfectly. Just take into account that you have to edith both /etc/ispcp/bind/working/domain.tld.db and /var/cache/bind/domain.tld.db.

After editing the zone file(s), dont forget to issue:

Code:

rndc reload domain.tld

And that's it...

PS: Make backups of your zone files whenever updating the panel!

RE: manual DNS control - kingxerxes - 08-11-2010 06:44 PM

so to have a domain with custom records:
1) create domain normally
2) edit the zone files you mentioned

i take it then that once a custom entry is created, i cannot use the control panel to create subdomains etc on that particular domain ...

You can create subdomains, etc. provided that you respect the special tags that you'll see in the zone file Smile

Sure but during update, all manually changes will be lost. Wink

Don't forget to update the serial manually too.

I just made a patch that fixes the mx behaviour, it applies to current trunk, if you want it ofr but it's a couple of lines that can be ported to previous versions it's only a couple of lines ...
