server crashes when receiving DNSSEC queries #182

Open rnhmjoj opened 6 years ago

rnhmjoj commented 6 years ago

The dnschain server dies upon receiving a DS (Delegation Signer) query. This happens when trying to resolve the .dns TLD which is forwarded to dnschain from pdns-recursor.

I don't know much about DNSSEC or, DNS for that matter, how should this query be handled?

Hmm, as mentioned, I don't have bandwidth to write code for DNSChain or native-dns at the moment (which is looking for maintainers), but pull requests are welcome!

I have actually tried to fix it but I don't have enough technical knowledge about DNS. If someone could suggest what to do I'd happily try to implement a it.

A new issue came up: even with DNSSEC disabled for the .bit zone the dnschain resolver answers are discarded because they lack the AA (authoritative answer) bit. This should be easier to fix, hopefully.
