An asynchronous DNS resolver for Haskell_ ========================================= :Latest Release: hsdns-1.4.1.tar.gz_ :Darcs: darcs_ get http://cryp.to/hsdns/ Synopsis -------- This library provides an asynchronous DNS resolver on top of the `GNU ADNS library`_. Not all options are supported, but A, MX, and PTR lookups work nicely. Courtesy of Lutz Donnerhacke <lutz@iks-jena.de>, there is also support for retrieving generic RR types, CNAMEs, and for NSEC zone walking. The library can be expected to work with fine ADNS 1.4 or later. It might also work with version ADNS 1.3, but that hasn't been tested. The example program adns-reverse-lookup.hs_ demonstrates how the resolver is used. Given a list of host names on the command line, it performs an A/PTR double-lookup and checks whether the records are consistent. The output is printed in the order in which the DNS responses arrive:: $ ./adns-reverse-lookup xyz.example.org ecrc.de www.example.com www.cryp.to OK: www.example.com <-> 208.77.188.166 ERR: xyz.example.org: cannot resolve A FAIL: www.cryp.to -> 195.234.152.69 -> ["research.cryp.to"] FAIL: ecrc.de -> 127.0.0.1 -> ["localhost"] Documentation ------------- `Reference Documentation`_ Haddock-generated reference of all exported functions.
