DNSSEC

triv on 2002-05-15T16:10:20

Olaf Kolkman has written a really nice extension to Net::DNS that adds DNSSEC support. I would add it to the main distro if not for one thing: it needs some modules from Crypt::*. I know from personal experence that getting those modules installed and working can be a challange, plus I don't know how well they work on windows, which Net::DNS has basic support for now.

I think I need to dive into MakeMaker some and get something like this going:

$ perl Makefile.pl DNSSEC=1 $ make


crypt on windows

I know Activestate has ppm's for a good chunk of the crypt modules, though I can't speak for the versions (which tend to be old). IIRC, Crypt::IDEA was the biggest pain and there's no ppm for it.
