As our final piece of housekeeping news, the PodMail demo has been restored to full functionality. While the RSS feeds continued to operate, we had disabled the phone-in side due to technical changes. If you haven't yet checked out the demo, we encourage you to do so now. See the PodMail site for more information.

Bryan Rite, Monday 20 November 2006 - 19:00:00 // comment: 1
Well its time again for the much anticipated Alkaloid Conference, this year being held in Atlanta Georgia from Saturday, Nov. 24th - Saturday, Dec. 2nd.
With so much action going on around the Alkaloid Networks these days there will be lots on the agenda. Putting aside some LAN parties and copious amounts of drinking, some topics we hope to cover include the Alkaloid infrastructure, the resurgence of the A-ScAN, current and future projects including Horde Development, honey pots, Footstops.com, Metal.com, and much more.
If you're in the area and interested in meeting up with the Alkaloid developers and members, talking about projects and ideas or just having a good time with some geeks, come join us! Send an email to atl2006@alkaloid.net for times and locations..

ldap2dns version 0.4.1
Ben Klang, Thursday 19 October 2006 - 15:07:39 // comment: 0
Thanks to many helpful emails and forum posts, a new and improved version of ldap2dns is now available.
This is primarily a bugfix release and includes the following changes:
* Updated scripts/data2ldif.pl to properly handle reverse domains
* Fixed parser bugs in scripts/data2ldif.pl (Thanks Fleischmann Bonaventura and Adrian Goins)
* Added missing option -M (Thanks Jason Chambers)
* Change default record limit to LDAP_NO_LIMIT
* Tightened up LDAP search scope when calculating the checksum (Thanks Jason Chambers for the bug report)
* Fixed bug reading the LDAP bind password out of the environment (Thanks Nick Gregory for the bug report)
With this release, some performance testing was done. I am pleased to report that, with a properly tuned LDAP database, ldap2dns is capable of handling 64,000 records comprising 8000 domains and produce a properly formatted TinyDNS data file in under 30 seconds. This was tested on a Pentium 4 3GHz desktop machine running OpenSuSE 10.1 with OpenLDAP 2.2 on localhost and ldap2dns version 0.4.1.
If anyone out there has a large install, feel free to post a comment to this announcement or in the Support Forums with your own observations. Your feedback will help improve this project.
As always, there are RPMs and Tarballs available on the Downloads page.
