Download PowerDNS Authoritative Server 4.1.5 / 4.0.6

PowerDNS is a dns server with a database as backend, which makes it easy to manage a large number of dns entries. The developers previously decided to release the two parts that make up PowerDNS, a recursor and an authoritative name server, so that they can release a new version more quickly and in a more targeted way, the developers said. The authoritative name server will only respond to a dns lookup if it pertains to the domains for which it is responsible. The developers have released PowerDNS Authoritative Server 4.1.5 and 4.0.6. The changes of these expenses are as follows:
