Figured out how to get ISC DHCPd and #PowerDNS to do dynamic DNS on #OpenBSD

```
subnet 192.0.2.0 netmask 255.255.255.0 {
/* usual declarations here */
set ClientHost = pick-first-value(
host-decl-name,
option fqdn.hostname,
option host-name,
"no-hostname");
set ClientIP = binary-to-ascii(10, 8, ".", leased-address);
set ClientFQDN = concat(ClientHost, ".", "dhcp.example.com");

on commit {
log(concat("Commit: IP: ", ClientIP, "FQDN: ", ClientFQDN));
execute("/usr/local/bin/pdnsutil", "rrset", "add",
"dhcp.example.com", ClientFQDN, "A", "300", ClientIP);
}
on release {
log(concat("Release: IP: ", ClientIP, "FQDN: ", ClientFQDN));
execute("/usr/local/bin/pdnsutil", "rrset", "delete",
"dhcp.example.com", ClientFQDN, "A");
}
on expiry {
log(concat("Expire: IP: ", ClientIP, "FQDN: ", ClientFQDN));
execute("/usr/local/bin/pdnsutil", "rrset", "delete",
"dhcp.example.com", ClientFQDN, "A");

Как перестать зависеть от Cloudflare в DNS и не выстрелить себе в ногу

DNS — это та штука, которую замечаешь только когда она падает. Весь твой трафик, почта, сертификаты, доступ к админкам — всё висит на том, что кто-то корректно ответит на запрос «а где example.com ?». У меня этим «кем-то» был Cloudflare. Для большинства это правильный выбор — удобно, быстро, бесплатно. Но в какой-то момент я поймал себя на мысли, что фундамент всей моей инфраструктуры я не контролирую: он живёт в чужом дашборде, по чужим правилам и лимитам. Я перенёс все свои зоны — несколько десятков доменов — на собственную DNS-инфра- структуру. Ниже — зачем, какая получилась архитектура, и обо что я споткнулся по дороге.
