[Nagiosplug-devel] check_dns

[Voon, Ton]

Sorry, I was going to look at it, but haven't had much time recently so
haven't touched it. Was going to use this as the basis of the resolver libs
change - why reinvent the wheel? Probably won't have time till next week.

Cursory glance looks good. Couple of things:

1) Some autoconf stuff will need to be added for the libraries
2) There's been a recent update on --expect-authority, so a bit of work
needed to incoporate that
3) Any chances of IPv6? I don't know it well enough to change

Otherwise, i think it is good enough to add in without much additional work.
If you can't wait till next week, Karl, you're welcome to update to CVS.

I haven't yet. Ton said he was working on the port to
resolver libs, but I also know he's pretty busy. If we don't hear from
him about where he is, I'll look at it today and may well come back with
a request to update it to head. We have repeatedly stated that check_dns
will be migrated to resolver functions. If you've done the work, why
should we do it again.

BTW - did you handle IPv6?
