DNS Connector
The Domain Name Service connector can iterate and do lookups in DNS.
Configuration
The Connector needs the following parameters:
Parameter |
Description |
connectorType |
com.architech.connector.DNSConnector |
dnsURL |
The url of the Name Server to use. Note
that if you intend to iterate his server must be authoritative for the
domain you try to iterate. |
dnsListDomain |
The domain to Iterate on. Only used by Iterator
mode.
Note that even for a Lookup Connector, you might want to discover the
attributes by interactivly Connecting to the DNS. In that case, you
have to supply a name for this parameter as well. |
Notes
- When iterating, the list of names is sent from the server in one big
chunk. This assumes your Java VM has memory for it
- When using the Connector in Lookup mode, only the 'equals' operator is
supported
The version of the libraries of your Sun Java VM 1.3, might hinder you from
running this Connector. If you get a message about an unavailable
com.sun.jndi.dns.DnsContextFactory, please:
- Download dns-1_2.jar. This is property of
Sun and can of course be downloaded from their site. Make sure to read
the copyright it contains. You can open the jar-file by using winzip.
- Put the contained dns.jar and providerutil.jar into the
Metamerge jars/ directory
- Edit miserver.lax and miadmin.lax so lax.class.path contains
jars/dns.jar
