Hosting

The following applies to the mesh.nycmesh.net zone, which is hosted inside of the mesh.

Requirements

Either:

• At least Knot 3.2 ( this is a new requirement for this repo, mainly because of ffi )
• Bind9, Debian preferred as it is scripted this way

Use

There are serveral python scripts and shell scripts. The python scripts generate secondary files, such as reverse zones, and auto-generated records.
deploy.sh is the original one for knot resolver
deploy-bind.sh is the newer one as we move to bind. The name is different so older servers dont break as part of the change.
