[Newcomer] Verify that Zenodotus picks up entries from advertise server #1315

Closed choksi81 closed 10 years ago

choksi81 commented 10 years ago

We should alter the existing Zenodotus monitoring script to also make sure that DNS entries advertised are properly being handled. i.e. if I advertise abcd1234.zenodotus.poly.edu -> 1.2.3.4, and I query a public DNS server, I should get 1.2.3.4 back. This should ideally be done by generating a random subdomain (perhaps in the form of zenodotus-test-[hash of generated public key](SHA).zenodotus.poly.edu), advertising it to point to blackbox, then verifying that a lookup responds with blackbox's IP address.
