From: Danny Thomas <d.thomas [...] its.uq.edu.au>
I'm scanning our network for name-servers, some of which are running on firewalls and are bound to several interfaces leading to things like dig @130.102.67.254 168.192.in-addr.arpa soa ;; reply from unexpected source: 130.102.1.163#53, expected 130.102.67.254#53 ;; reply from unexpected source: 130.102.1.163#53, expected 130.102.67.254#53 my script uses bgsend to send the same query to each address in a /24, however I noticed $sender was undefined: my $ans = $res->bgread($sock); my $sender = $ans->answerfrom; things worked upon adding two lines to Net::DNS::Resolver::Base.pm, the last two in this fragment from bgread() my ($ans, $err) = Net::DNS::Packet->new(\$buf, $self->{'debug'}); if (defined $ans) { $self->errorstring($ans->header->rcode); $ans->{'answerfrom'} = $sock->peerhost; $ans->{'answersize'} = length($buf); I have not checked to see whether any other values need setting to match what happens in the synchronous $res->query() method. cheers, Danny I'm using Net::DNS 0.53_02 under perl-5.8.5 on FreeBSD-4.11-p12, but there's no change to bgread under Net::DNS 0.58 -- d.thomas@its.uq.edu.au Danny Thomas, +61-7-3365-8221 Software Infrastructure, http://www.its.uq.edu.au ITS, The University of Queensland
I've just relased 0.59. FYI: the problem has not been fixed in that piece of code. I'll look at this shortly. --Olaf
This took far to long to solve. Apologies. Answersize and Answerfrom will be appropriately set in version 0.62 that is forthcoming
