.TH DNSBLOG 8
.ad
.fi
.SH NAME
dnsblog
\-
Postfix DNS allow/denylist logger
.SH "SYNOPSIS"
.na
.nf
\fBdnsblog\fR [generic Postfix daemon options]
.SH DESCRIPTION
.ad
.fi
The \fBdnsblog\fR(8) server implements an ad\-hoc DNS
allow/denylist lookup service. This may eventually be
replaced by an UDP client that is built directly into the
\fBpostscreen\fR(8) server.
.SH "PROTOCOL"
.na
.nf
.ad
.fi
With each connection, the \fBdnsblog\fR(8) server receives
a DNS allow/denylist domain name, an IP address, and an ID.
If the IP address is listed under the DNS allow/denylist, the
\fBdnsblog\fR(8) server logs the match and replies with the
query arguments plus an address list with the resulting IP
addresses, separated by whitespace, and the reply TTL.
Otherwise it replies with the query arguments plus an empty
address list and the reply TTL; the reply TTL is \-1 if there
is no reply, or a negative reply that contains no SOA record.
Finally, the \fBdnsblog\fR(8) server closes the connection.
.SH DIAGNOSTICS
.ad
.fi
Problems and transactions are logged to \fBsyslogd\fR(8)
or \fBpostlogd\fR(8).
.SH "CONFIGURATION PARAMETERS"
.na
.nf

Optional list of DNS allow/denylist domains, filters and weight
factors.
.IP "\fBipc_timeout (3600s)\fR"
