MyDNS is a DNS server based on MySQL for a backend.
This project is about getting the source code to comply with DNS records whose data is larger than 128 characters.
Today the limitation - both in the database and in the source code - is of 128 characters for the rr table, as seen here:
[login to view URL]
In the **data** field.
We tried making the database field larger, but the server keeps crashing. It must be due to the fact that the C code only allows 128 characters as well.
You will be bidding on a project to change the C code that can be downloaded here:
[login to view URL]
In a way that the server complies with any types of record (A, AAAA, CNAME, PTR, etc) whose data is larger than 128 characters.
In order to accept the project we'll have an acceptance phase and then we'll battle test you modified server for 48 ours live with no crashes.
