Resolver library used to communicate with a DNS server

A resolver library used to communicate with a name server to perform DNS queries, zone transfers, dynamic DNS updates, etc. Creates an object hierarchy from a DNS server's response, which allows you to view all of the information given by the DNS server. It bypasses the system's resolver library and communicates directly with the server. ekilfoil Eric Kilfoil eric@ypass.net lead pollita Sara Golemon pollita@php.net developer 1.00b2 2003-06-10 LGPL 2.1 beta - More RR types supported: AAAA, HINFO, NAPTR, SRV, and TXT (Sara Goleman). - Fixed bug 23812 (as well as other unreported bugs) - Added capability for extracting arbritrary lables from a packet (Sara Goleman). 1.00b1 2003-02-24 beta - Tested with PHP 4.3.0 - Should have no warnings under with maximum error_reporting setting - Fixed bug: did not understand name server responses using the one-answer zone transfer format - Fixed more problems with PHP warning about uninitialized variables Note that the interface to the axfr function has changed. Software relying on the old (buggy) style of axfr queries will need to be updated to call axfr_old() instead of axfr(). The new axfr() function will not return a DNS packet, but an array of RRs ONLY. 0.03 2002-08-15 beta Now has stable support of DNS queries, socket handling, and packet parsing/generating. Any problems at this point should be considered bugs and should be reported ASAP. Running this code with E_ALL should be acceptable -- any warnings generated should be submitted to eric@ypass.net. 0.02 2002-08-15 beta Supports TSIG signed DNS packets for generating DNS update packets (re: rfc2485) 0.01 2002-05-14 devel Currently only supports A, CNAME, NS, PTR, MX, and SOA records.
