fpdns - Fingerprinting DNS servers

A nameserver basically responds to a query. Interoperability is an
obvious requirement here. The standard protocol behaviour of different
DNS implementations is expected to be the same.

Requirements for protocol behaviour of DNS implementations is widely
documented in the case of 'common' dns messages. The DNS protocol
is over 20 years old and since its inception, there have been over
40 independent DNS implementations, while some implementations have
over 20 versions.

The methodology used to identify individual nameserver implementations
is based on "borderline" protocol behaviour. The DNS protocol offers
a multitude of message bits, response types, opcodes, classes, query
types and label types in a fashion that makes some mutually exclusive
while some are not used in a query messages at all. Not every
implementation offers the full set of features the DNS protocol set
currently has. Some implementations offer features outside the
protocol set, and there are implementations that do not conform to
standards.

Add SHA256 checksums to my ports

For the ports that I maintain, do the following as appropriate:

1. Add myself as a backup master site (Sourceforge and CPAN ports
already have good enough coverage, so skip them).
2. For all ports that have them, download the PGP signature files.
3. For ports in 2, add a verify target to the Makefile
4. For ports where I was already providing a master site, update the URL.
5. Pet portlint in a couple of places.

Take over maintainership, approved by edwin (old maintainer).

Update to the latest, 0.9.3. This version moves to a more typical
Perl-style Makefile.PL structure, and splits the functionality into
a library and a binary. This necessitates changes to the port structure,
including re-adding the pkg-plist file.

While I'm here, make portlint happy with the IGNORE statement.

Add dependency on dns/p5-Net-DNS

Submitted by:   Olli Hauer <ohauer@gmx.de>

Update to 0.9.1, the latest version, which includes a man page.

And while I'm here:

1. Download the PGP .sig file, in case the user wants to verify the package
2. Switch to PLIST_FILES for the one file this port installs
3. Replace the lone patch file with a ${SED} command

For those keeping score at home, that's 3 inodes gone with one commit! :)
