dnstab-read with detailed information

[MAYER Hans]

Dear All,

dnstab is a great feature to analyse the details what’s going on. But I think there is room for improvement.

I write the data to a file and once a day I do a log rotate.
With "dnstab-read FILE | grep IP“ I get basic information about an IP which I am looking for.
Now getting full information required options -p and -y
In this case „grep“ing isn’t so easy. Options -A can help.
What I do is, I redirect output to a file and open it with „vi“.
You can imagine, that this file can become large.

Are there any other (better) possibilities ?
An improvement would be, if dnstab-read could handle a filter by itself.

I am using BIND 9.18.14-dev (Extended Support Version) <id:cf03a99>


Kind regards
Hans
