139 * In queries without qf_quoteok_*, all domains must have standard
140 * legal syntax, or you get adns_s_querydomainvalid (if the query
141 * domain contains bad characters) or adns_s_answerdomaininvalid (if
142 * the answer contains bad characters).
143 *
144 * In queries _with_ qf_quoteok_*, domains in the query or response
145 * may contain any characters, quoted according to RFC1035 5.1. On
146 * input to adns, the char* is a pointer to the interior of a "
147 * delimited string, except that " may appear in it unquoted. On
148 * output, the char* is a pointer to a string which would be legal
149 * either inside or outside " delimiters; any character which isn't
150 * legal in a hostname (ie alphanumeric or hyphen) or one of _ / +
151 * (the three other punctuation characters commonly abused in domain
152 * names) will be quoted, as \X if it is a printing ASCII character or
153 * \DDD otherwise.
154 *
155 * If the query goes via a CNAME then the canonical name (ie, the
156 * thing that the CNAME record refers to) is usually allowed to
157 * contain any characters, which will be quoted as above. With
158 * adns_qf_quotefail_cname you get adns_s_answerdomaininvalid when
159 * this happens. (This is a change from version 0.4 and earlier, in
160 * which failing the query was the default, and you had to say
161 * adns_qf_quoteok_cname to avoid this; that flag is now deprecated.)
162 *
163 * In version 0.4 and earlier, asking for _raw records containing
164 * mailboxes without specifying _qf_quoteok_anshost was silly. This
165 * is no longer the case. In this version only parts of responses
166 * that are actually supposed to be hostnames will be refused by
167 * default if quote-requiring characters are found.
168 */
169
170 /*
171 * If you ask for an RR which contains domains which are actually
172 * encoded mailboxes, and don't ask for the _raw version, then adns
173 * returns the mailbox formatted suitably for an RFC822 recipient
174 * header field. The particular format used is that if the mailbox
175 * requires quoting according to the rules in RFC822 then the
176 * local-part is quoted in double quotes, which end at the next
177 * unescaped double quote (\ is the escape char, and is doubled, and
178 * is used to escape only \ and "). If the local-part is legal
179 * without quoting according to RFC822, it is presented as-is. In any
180 * case the local-part is followed by an @ and the domain. The domain
181 * will not contain any characters not legal in hostnames.
182 *
183 * Unquoted local-parts may contain any printing 7-bit ASCII
184 * except the punctuation characters ( ) < > @ , ; : \ " [ ]
185 * I.e. they may contain alphanumerics, and the following
186 * punctuation characters: ! # % ^ & * - _ = + { } .
187 *
188 * adns will reject local parts containing control characters (byte
189 * values 0-31, 127-159, and 255) - these appear to be legal according
190 * to RFC822 (at least 0-127) but are clearly a bad idea. RFC1035
191 * syntax does not make any distinction between a single RFC822
192 * quoted-string containing full stops, and a series of quoted-strings
193 * separated by full stops; adns will return anything that isn't all
194 * valid atoms as a single quoted-string. RFC822 does not allow
195 * high-bit-set characters at all, but adns does allow them in
196 * local-parts, treating them as needing quoting.
197 *
198 * If you ask for the domain with _raw then _no_ checking is done
199 * (even on the host part, regardless of adns_qf_quoteok_anshost), and
200 * you just get the domain name in master file format.
201 *
202 * If no mailbox is supplied the returned string will be `.' in either
203 * case.

382 *
383 * Standard directives understood in resolv[-adns].conf:
384 *
385 * nameserver <address>
386 * Must be followed by the IP address of a nameserver. Several
387 * nameservers may be specified, and they will be tried in the order
388 * found. There is a compiled in limit, currently 5, on the number
389 * of nameservers. (libresolv supports only 3 nameservers.)
390 *
391 * search <domain> ...
392 * Specifies the search list for queries which specify
393 * adns_qf_search. This is a list of domains to append to the query
394 * domain. The query domain will be tried as-is either before all
395 * of these or after them, depending on the ndots option setting
396 * (see below).
397 *
398 * domain <domain>
399 * This is present only for backward compatibility with obsolete
400 * versions of libresolv. It should not be used, and is interpreted
401 * by adns as if it were `search' - note that this is subtly
402 * different to libresolv's interpretation of this directive.
403 *
404 * sortlist <addr>/<mask> ...
405 * Should be followed by a sequence of IP-address and netmask pairs,
406 * separated by spaces. They may be specified as
407 * eg. 172.30.206.0/24 or 172.30.206.0/255.255.255.0. Currently up
408 * to 15 pairs may be specified (but note that libresolv only
409 * supports up to 10).
410 *
411 * options
412 * Should followed by one or more options, separated by spaces.
413 * Each option consists of an option name, followed by optionally
414 * a colon and a value. Options are listed below.
415 *
416 * Non-standard directives understood in resolv[-adns].conf:
417 *
418 * clearnameservers
419 * Clears the list of nameservers, so that further nameserver lines
420 * start again from the beginning.
421 *
422 * include <filename>
423 * The specified file will be read.
424 *
425 * Additionally, adns will ignore lines in resolv[-adns].conf which
426 * start with a #.
427 *
428 * Standard options understood:
429 *
430 * debug
431 * Enables debugging output from the resolver, which will be written
432 * to stderr.
433 *
434 * ndots:<count>
435 * Affects whether queries with adns_qf_search will be tried first
436 * without adding domains from the searchlist, or whether the bare
437 * query domain will be tried last. Queries which contain at least
438 * <count> dots will be tried bare first. The default is 1.
439 *
440 * Non-standard options understood:
441 *
442 * adns_checkc:none
443 * adns_checkc:entex
444 * adns_checkc:freq
445 * Changes the consistency checking frequency; this overrides the
446 * setting of adns_if_check_entex, adns_if_check_freq, or neither,
447 * in the flags passed to adns_init.
448 *
449 * There are a number of environment variables which can modify the
450 * behaviour of adns. They take effect only if adns_init is used, and
451 * the caller of adns_init can disable them using adns_if_noenv. In
452 * each case there is both a FOO and an ADNS_FOO; the latter is
453 * interpreted later so that it can override the former. Unless
454 * otherwise stated, environment variables are interpreted after
455 * resolv[-adns].conf are read, in the order they are listed here.
456 *
457 * RES_CONF, ADNS_RES_CONF
458 * A filename, whose contets are in the format of resolv.conf.
459 *
460 * RES_CONF_TEXT, ADNS_RES_CONF_TEXT
461 * A string in the format of resolv.conf.
462 *
463 * RES_OPTIONS, ADNS_RES_OPTIONS
464 * These are parsed as if they appeared in the `options' line of a
465 * resolv.conf. In addition to being parsed at this point in the
466 * sequence, they are also parsed at the very beginning before
467 * resolv.conf or any other environment variables are read, so that
468 * any debug option can affect the processing of the configuration.
469 *
470 * LOCALDOMAIN, ADNS_LOCALDOMAIN
471 * These are interpreted as if their contents appeared in a `search'
472 * line in resolv.conf.
