It shouldn't be difficult to do.<BR/><BR/>My next trick is to finish the bgp query daemon so various modules can do BGP lookups without each having a full table in memory.<BR/><BR/>I really need to get all of this stuff wrapped up and released..Adrianhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17496219706861321916noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-351311855402780691.post-18999908881166648562009-03-18T11:47:00.000-07:002009-03-18T11:47:00.000-07:00There is also a perl geo dnshttp://geo.bitnames.co...There is also a perl geo dns<BR/><BR/>http://geo.bitnames.com/<BR/><BR/>Maxmind's city database has lat/long.Yejunhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11930333572532603614noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-351311855402780691.post-58443744305720143262009-03-18T11:33:00.000-07:002009-03-18T11:33:00.000-07:00Cute.

Its djbdns based, no?<BR/><BR/>A large motivation behind using powerdns and the pipe-backend is to try and make things modular and easy to modify.<BR/><BR/>I'm also trying to reuse code modules as much as possible - embedding python inside a busy C application is possible but tricky. :)<BR/><BR/>But cool. Where are you getting the lat/long details for IPs? I'd like to compare that against the nerd.dk geoip list.Adrianhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17496219706861321916noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-351311855402780691.post-18797792626872827422009-03-17T22:49:00.000-07:002009-03-17T22:49:00.000-07:00Have you checked this geoipdns http://code.google....Have you checked this geoipdns http://code.google.com/p/geoipdns/ ? <BR/>I wrote a geodns for myself yesterday which is based on python twisted.
