179 * legal syntax, or you get adns_s_querydomainvalid (if the query
180 * domain contains bad characters) or adns_s_answerdomaininvalid (if
181 * the answer contains bad characters).
183 * In queries _with_ qf_quoteok_*, domains in the query or response
184 * may contain any characters, quoted according to RFC1035 5.1. On
185 * input to adns, the char* is a pointer to the interior of a "
186 * delimited string, except that " may appear in it unquoted. On
187 * output, the char* is a pointer to a string which would be legal
188 * either inside or outside " delimiters; any character which isn't
189 * legal in a hostname (ie alphanumeric or hyphen) or one of _ / +
190 * (the three other punctuation characters commonly abused in domain
191 * names) will be quoted, as \X if it is a printing ASCII character or
194 * If the query goes via a CNAME then the canonical name (ie, the
195 * thing that the CNAME record refers to) is usually allowed to
196 * contain any characters, which will be quoted as above. With
197 * adns_qf_quotefail_cname you get adns_s_answerdomaininvalid when
198 * this happens. (This is a change from version 0.4 and earlier, in
199 * which failing the query was the default, and you had to say
200 * adns_qf_quoteok_cname to avoid this; that flag is now deprecated.)
202 * In version 0.4 and earlier, asking for _raw records containing
203 * mailboxes without specifying _qf_quoteok_anshost was silly. This
204 * is no longer the case. In this version only parts of responses
205 * that are actually supposed to be hostnames will be refused by
206 * default if quote-requiring characters are found.
210 * If you ask for an RR which contains domains which are actually
211 * encoded mailboxes, and don't ask for the _raw version, then adns
212 * returns the mailbox formatted suitably for an RFC822 recipient
213 * header field. The particular format used is that if the mailbox
214 * requires quoting according to the rules in RFC822 then the
215 * local-part is quoted in double quotes, which end at the next
216 * unescaped double quote (\ is the escape char, and is doubled, and
217 * is used to escape only \ and "). If the local-part is legal
218 * without quoting according to RFC822, it is presented as-is. In any
219 * case the local-part is followed by an @ and the domain. The domain
220 * will not contain any characters not legal in hostnames.
222 * Unquoted local-parts may contain any printing 7-bit ASCII
223 * except the punctuation characters ( ) < > @ , ; : \ " [ ]
224 * I.e. they may contain alphanumerics, and the following
225 * punctuation characters: ! # % ^ & * - _ = + { } .
227 * adns will reject local parts containing control characters (byte
228 * values 0-31, 127-159, and 255) - these appear to be legal according
229 * to RFC822 (at least 0-127) but are clearly a bad idea. RFC1035
230 * syntax does not make any distinction between a single RFC822
231 * quoted-string containing full stops, and a series of quoted-strings
232 * separated by full stops; adns will return anything that isn't all
233 * valid atoms as a single quoted-string. RFC822 does not allow
234 * high-bit-set characters at all, but adns does allow them in
235 * local-parts, treating them as needing quoting.
237 * If you ask for the domain with _raw then _no_ checking is done
238 * (even on the host part, regardless of adns_qf_quoteok_anshost), and
239 * you just get the domain name in master file format.
241 * If no mailbox is supplied the returned string will be `.' in either

476 * found. There is a compiled in limit, currently 5, on the number
477 * of nameservers. (libresolv supports only 3 nameservers.)
479 * search <domain> ...
480 * Specifies the search list for queries which specify
481 * adns_qf_search. This is a list of domains to append to the query
482 * domain. The query domain will be tried as-is either before all
483 * of these or after them, depending on the ndots option setting
487 * This is present only for backward compatibility with obsolete
488 * versions of libresolv. It should not be used, and is interpreted
489 * by adns as if it were `search' - note that this is subtly
490 * different to libresolv's interpretation of this directive.
492 * sortlist <addr>/<mask> ...
493 * Should be followed by a sequence of IP-address and netmask pairs,
494 * separated by spaces. They may be specified as
495 * eg. 172.30.206.0/24 or 172.30.206.0/255.255.255.0. Currently up
496 * to 15 pairs may be specified (but note that libresolv only
497 * supports up to 10).
500 * Should followed by one or more options, separated by spaces.
501 * Each option consists of an option name, followed by optionally
502 * a colon and a value. Options are listed below.
504 * Non-standard directives understood in resolv[-adns].conf:
507 * Clears the list of nameservers, so that further nameserver lines
508 * start again from the beginning.
511 * The specified file will be read.
513 * Additionally, adns will ignore lines in resolv[-adns].conf which
516 * Standard options understood:
519 * Enables debugging output from the resolver, which will be written
523 * Affects whether queries with adns_qf_search will be tried first
524 * without adding domains from the searchlist, or whether the bare
525 * query domain will be tried last. Queries which contain at least
526 * <count> dots will be tried bare first. The default is 1.
528 * Non-standard options understood:
533 * Changes the consistency checking frequency; this overrides the
534 * setting of adns_if_check_entex, adns_if_check_freq, or neither,
535 * in the flags passed to adns_init.
537 * There are a number of environment variables which can modify the
538 * behaviour of adns. They take effect only if adns_init is used, and
539 * the caller of adns_init can disable them using adns_if_noenv. In
540 * each case there is both a FOO and an ADNS_FOO; the latter is
541 * interpreted later so that it can override the former. Unless
542 * otherwise stated, environment variables are interpreted after
543 * resolv[-adns].conf are read, in the order they are listed here.
545 * RES_CONF, ADNS_RES_CONF
546 * A filename, whose contets are in the format of resolv.conf.
548 * RES_CONF_TEXT, ADNS_RES_CONF_TEXT
549 * A string in the format of resolv.conf.
551 * RES_OPTIONS, ADNS_RES_OPTIONS
552 * These are parsed as if they appeared in the `options' line of a
553 * resolv.conf. In addition to being parsed at this point in the
554 * sequence, they are also parsed at the very beginning before
555 * resolv.conf or any other environment variables are read, so that
556 * any debug option can affect the processing of the configuration.
558 * LOCALDOMAIN, ADNS_LOCALDOMAIN
559 * These are interpreted as if their contents appeared in a `search'
560 * line in resolv.conf.
