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.

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.

It has been a while since we touched api’s but this weeken we took a small step forward to replace an old API package. Instead of staying in a sphere of self maintained system, we’re about to try to run entirely over a Lumen instance. One of many reasons is the needs for, for example, a very long time planned data-to-rss-transformation system. This also means that we probably will deprecated the basic authentication system in a near future and start using JWT instead. For the DNS business, this may be a huge advantage in how data entries are handled in the editor.

To be continued…

As our hosting conditions is about to radically change, the decision has been made to push away some of our DNS services. The services moved to Linode can not be used as recursive services. We’ve also completely removed the “microweb”-services, since they are practically empty and no longer necessary.
