Joshua Tauberer c7c3bd33cf DNS API should reject qnames that aren't in a zone managed by the box

Joshua Tauberer 16e2350fef revise the description of A records on domains: the A record must be present for good deliverability so that the envelope domain resolves, but it doesn't have to resolve to this machine 2014-09-15 06:00:50 -04:00
Joshua Tauberer 110e0f90d9 dns: move the quoting of TXT records to when we write the zone file so that we can display it unquoted in the External DNS instructions 2014-09-07 11:42:20 +00:00
Joshua Tauberer 7a449c76a1 set the DNS TTL to 30 minutes rather than 1 day
Also updating the values for secondary DNS, but we're not set up
for secondary DNS so it won't matter.

Joshua Tauberer ed8ce16fb5 show custom DNS records in the control panel too, fixes #155 2014-08-25 23:35:44 +00:00
Joshua Tauberer df20d447a9 add an api for setting custom DNS records
Works like this:

```curl -d "" --user email:password https://.../admin/dns/set/qname/rtype/value```

where the rtype and value default to "A" and the remote IP address of the request, so that a simple, empty POST to

```https://.../admin/dns/set/desktop.mydomain.com```

will point desktop.mydomain.com to the caller's IPv4 address.

Joshua Tauberer ba8e015795 dns_update: dont restart the opendkim process if nothing changed 2014-08-17 20:42:17 +00:00
Joshua Tauberer 6d4fab1e6a whats_next: offer DNSSEC DS parameters rather than the full record and in validation allow for other digests than the one we suggest using
fixes #120 (hopefully), in which Gandi generates a SHA1 digest but we were only checking against a SHA256 digest

Also see http://discourse.mailinabox.email/t/how-to-set-ds-record-for-gandi-net/24/1 in which a user asks about the DS parameters that Gandi asks for.

sfPlayer1 0e893626c8 Add IPv6 glue records as well
The dns_update script didn't generate IPv6 (AAAA) glue records for the name servers.

This caused http://dnscheck.pingdom.com to complain about a mismatch between the glue records reported by the parent name server and mailinabox nsd.

Here's the failing dnscheck output for reference:
> Checking glue for ns1.my.domain.tld (1.2.3.4).
> Child glue for bgwe.eu found: ns1.my.domain.tld (1.2.3.4)
> Checking glue for ns1.my.domain.tld (1234::1).
> Missing glue at child: ns1.my.domain.tld
> Checking glue for ns2.my.domain.tld (1.2.3.4).
> Child glue for bgwe.eu found: ns2.my.domain.tld (1.2.3.4)
> Checking glue for ns2.my.domain.tld (1234::1).
> Missing glue at child: ns2.my.domain.tld

I'm not very familiar with Python and DNS, please verify ;)

Joshua Tauberer 42c891032d don't create a www. subdomain on any domains that are themselves subdomains within a zone, i.e. don't create www.PUBLIC_HOSTNAME if PUBLIC_HOSTNAME is a subdomain of another domain, which is what we normally recommend 2014-07-17 13:08:05 +00:00

Joshua Tauberer 95e61bc110 add DANE TLSA records to the PUBLIC_HOSTNAME's DNS
Postfix has a tls_security_level called "dane" which uses DNS-Based Authentication of Named Entities (DANE)
to require, if specified in the DNS of the MX host, an encrpyted connection with a known certificate.

This commit adds TLSA records.

Joshua Tauberer afb6c26c8b run bind9 on the loopback interface for ensuring we are using a DNSSEC-aware nameserver to resolve our own DNS queries (i.e. when sending mail) since we can't trust that the network configuration provided for us gives us a DNSSEC-aware DNS server

Michael Kropat ae67409603 Support dual-stack IPv4/IPv6 mail servers
Addresses #3

Added support by adding parallel code wherever `$PUBLIC_IP` was used.
Providing an IPv6 address is completely optional.

Playing around on my IPv6-enabled mail server revealed that — before
this change — mailinabox might try to use an IPv6 address as the value
for `$PUBLIC_IP`, which wouldn't work out well.

Joshua Tauberer c54b0cbefc move management into a daemon service running as root
* Created a new Python/flask-based management daemon.
* Moved the mail user management core code from tools/mail.py to the new daemon.
* tools/mail.py is a wrapper around the daemon and can be run as a non-root user.
* Adding a new initscript for the management daemon.
* Moving dns_update.sh to the management daemon, called via curl'ing the daemon's API.

This also now runs the DNS update after mail users and aliases are added/removed,
which sets up new domains' DNS as needed.
