NAME
convert-ip-db - prepare IP address to hostname mappings for Analog
SYNOPSIS
convert-ip-db
[ip2host.db]
DESCRIPTION
convert-ip-db
reads a DB file produced by
dns-terror.
It converts the IP address to
hostname mappings from that file into Analog config directives. It
writes to the standard output, which should be saved in a file
(suggested name: dns.cache) which is sourced in Analog config
files with:
DNS READ
DNSFILE ./dns.cache
# 1008 is (35+7)*24, one week past the expire-ip-db default.
DNSGOODHOURS 1008
DNSBADHOURS 1008
This handling of IP address resolution is similar in speed to using
dns-terror -oz
to rewrite the log files in gzip form with IP addresses resolved,
so perhaps it should be considered obsolete.
