@vitalie Thanks for adding another tool to my toolbox. I really appreciate good DNS tools. I'll post my reactions/comments once I've had a chance to play around with it a bit.
I've added your requests to my Todo list. Now, I'm going to bed. Thank you!
@vitalie like this a lot. Don't go all subscriber on us this is beautifully efficient!
Hello,
This is script open source? Or do you plan to sell this?
Cheers
Seems similar to something I've always used, IntoDNS.
I'm lov'in it.
Would be nice to see the site/template as being responsive (http://dfcb.github.com/Responsivator/?site=www.dnsinspect.com) or possibly a mobile-friendly version.
All the best!
No, it's not open source and I don't plan to sell it, from 2008 till now I've received many offers to sell it.
There are many similar tools on the web, they all got inspiration from the defunct dnsreport.com. My focus with this tool is:
@Isaiah one up for that..I am REALLY getting tired of major sites not using responsive design
The tool is great and I can imagine it took a LOT of work.
Since you asked for constructive criticism I'd like to point out one shortcoming:
IP addresses aren't divided into A,B, C classes anymore. There is something called CIDR now. So you should change that message.
I like it. It looks good and it is fast. Do you have any before/after performance metrics for the rails --> go switch?
@Abdussamad - yes but with smaller subnets, usually those subnets on the same /24 will all be routed throuh the same Dist. Router
Indeed it needs a mobile version/responsive design to avoid scrolling. I'll start implementing a mobile skin after finishing current tasks, although it looks decent on my Nexus 4 and old Nokia mobile.
I'll write a post in the blog regarding this architecture change, the biggest win is memory usage & code simplicity, memory went down from 128MB/worker to a few KB.
@vitalie - maybe you can consider API or something similar so it will be possible to integrate your service with 3rd party? and maybe add something similar to http://www.whatsmydns.net/ so it will be possible to run diagnostics and propagation?
You seem to have misunderstood me. I am sure it is a good idea to have nameservers in different subnets. I am not against that. What I am complaining about is that the terminology is all wrong. There is no such thing as a C class network anymore.
Right but the term still exists, and of course class C networks still exist.
After the modifications the tool looks very good, i like it Now i just have to try to remember the name and use it.
http://ViewDNS.info has an API with a bunch of free tools that could work for you?
I've deployed a new version, check it now.
Fixed.
Fixed.
Fixed.
I'm following the KISS principle, I love simplicity. I'm trying to avoid features which complicates the interface or code. Sure, I'll consider adding API support if there will be enough requests. Thank you!
@vitalie +1 on the API
As already said via PM, there is something that isn't very stable in the tool.
I tested 2 domains, both use the same DNS servers and both use the same mailserver. On one of the domains it says it can't access one of the mailservers, while on the other it can access them both. And on one of the domains it says that a DNS server can't be accessed in ipv6 while it can do that for the other domain. I tested and retested it several times.
Domainnames were given in PM.
Looks great! Thank you!
Kudos to @vitalie
I actively using your site for the past 3 days.
I will let you know if something stupid happen.
Thanks.
I'll take a look at your configuration today. Thank you!
Wuhoo! Getting an "A" rating from the report.
However if I re-run the test, sometimes the MX doesn't come back 100% - it complains about something to do with the Google Apps MX.
I've just released a new version which addresses Dirk's problem.
Sorry, I didn't understood the problem. Please, help me understand it, give me more details. Thank you!
@vitalie - it seems to be working ok now
Nice job. Well done.
You need to add support for DNSSEC!
Great Tool..
I like this tool.
It reminded me I need to redo my mail server.
