By setting bind::include_default_zones to false, a user can suppress the
inclusion of the default definitions for the root hints zone and RFC 1912
zones. These are supplied with the BIND package's default configuration on both
Debian and RedHat derived systems. These zones are necessary for a resolver,
but may be omitted if the server acts strictly as an authoritative server.
RedHat's default zones are baked into the stock named.conf, which the module's
template completely rewrites. Since the module is extremely view-based, and the
Debian default-zones are repositioned into the zones, let's take those defaults
out of the stock named.conf, build a configuration file out of them and include
it in the view just the same.
`Socket.ip_address_list` is a new addition to ruby 1.9. Maintain support for
ruby 1.8.7 by making the new autorequire feature of `resource_record`
conditional on the existence of the required API.
The changes in the `redhat-default-zones` branch, when released, may cause
upgrade difficulties for Red Hat system administrators. Try to ease the
transition.
`bind::defaults::supported` should always have a boolean value. If it does not,
then this means either 1) user error (e.g. the user defined some other value
for the key) or 2) module_data is not functioning correctly.
The `params` vs. `bind` class distinction has been blurry for a long time. I'm
formalizing it.
`params` is now `defaults` and its purpose is to gather platform-specific
variation into a single scope. These variables are related to situating a BIND
server on a particular platform and it should not ever be necessary or perhaps
even possible to change them as a matter of preference. Rather, correct values
are function of e.g. `$osfamily` or `$operatingsystem`.
The parameters of the `bind` class are limited to those that control the
server's feature set. These parameters *are* matters of preference and/or
purpose, rather than platform.
Also, I have taken some care to develop a convention for direct references to
qualified parameters where they are re-scoped into the local scope centrally at
the top first, and subsequent references are to the local value. This should
minimize future code churn and also aid readability.
Fix a bunch of warnings whne using the bind::updater class by moving confdir to
the params class. In order for this to work, the bind and bind::updater classes
both now inherit from params. Also, fix the default value for
managed_key_directory to something that's actually falsey.
Modify the handling of the `servers` property in `bind::view` to respond to
specific keys in the config hash for each server, and document how this
property is handled.
