DNSBL – tornevall.org – DNS Update: Moving resolvers

All secondary DNS servers for tornevall.org is currently being updated. Secondary services will from now on be hosted via Linode. As we are dismounting some internal DNS servers, this is one step in that progress. A second purpose of this change is also to make resolving faster worldwide.

The primary DNS, which is also currently the one that handles listings/delistings will be moved into a multi-address server, which means there are at least three entry points to it.

Changes amongst our DNS services, our beloved Stockholm Service shuts down in the end of 2023

The service that ns1.tornevall.net relies in runs an older version of OpenVZ which will reach an end of support 2023-12-31. Therefore, we will prepare to transfer this service elsewhere, probably already during this summer. If your DNS services depends on this, make sure you’re no longer using it.

The work has recently also started to migrate to a new master DNS. This work was finished today, which means that the API (v3) as of today communicates with a DNS that has closer reachability.
