DnsBl Error in 0.25

Post by BSOD2600 » 2003-06-02 03:58

2003-06-01 20:30:15: DnsBl: getHostByName: "75.72.67.213.opm.blitzed.org": A nonauthoritative host was not found, or the server failure (11002)

Found that in my DCH log...comments?

it means that some dns was not responding at that moment,
it's a TRY_AGAIN error..
if any error occurs, the user is let in

two things:

- should I make the "connection was denied" message optional? put it in a separate logfile?

- I think I should rewrite the DnsBl to use threads to check all users when there is time, rather than check everyone at login... this will speed up the login if your dns is slow, and more importantly will reduce the excessive dns load when you've restarted the hub and have 1000 users trying to get in at once
