* hosts middleware should return NoError if other records exist in the zone * return RcodeSuccess for hosts queries for non A,AAAA records if the zone exists * return NXDOMAIN instead of REFUSED when zone is not found
hosts
hosts enables serving zone data from a /etc/hosts style file.
The hosts middleware is useful for serving zones from a /etc/hosts file. It serves from a preloaded file that exists on disk. It checks the file for changes and updates the zones accordingly. This middleware only supports A, AAAA, and PTR records. The hosts middleware can be used with readily available hosts files that block access to advertising servers.
Syntax
hosts FILE [ZONES...] {
fallthrough
}
- FILE the hosts file to read and parse. If the path is relative the path from the root directive will be prepended to it. Defaults to /etc/hosts if omitted
- ZONES zones it should be authoritative for. If empty, the zones from the configuration block are used.
fallthroughIf zone matches and no record can be generated, pass request to the next middleware.
Examples
Load /etc/hosts file
hosts
Load example.hosts file
hosts example.hosts
Load example.hosts file and only serve example.org and example.net from it and fall through to the next middleware if query doesn't match
hosts example.hosts example.org example.net {
fallthrough
}
