DNSCHECK-12HOURMAILER(User Contributed Perl DocumentatDNSCHECK-12HOURMAILER(1)NAMEdnscheck-12hourmailer - email registrars about problems in their
domains
DESCRIPTION
This script will look through the "tests" table in the DNSCheck
database, pick out the ones that resulted in problems classified at
level "CRITICAL" or "ERROR", group the domains thus found by registrar
and send each registrar an email listing the problematic zones and some
basic information on the problems.
The registrar data is taken from the REGGIE database for the ".se"
domain, and thus the script will probably be of limited use to other
organisations as is. Other users will almost certainly need to write
their own version of the get_registrar_info function. It expects a
single domain name as its input, and returns "undef" (if no registrar
could be found) or a two-element list with the contact email address
for and name of the relevant registrar (in that order).
It might be useful to simply make the function return a fixed list with
an email address and a name string, in which case single email with all
problems will be sent to the address given.
CONFIGURATION
This script uses the same YAML files as the rest of the DNSCheck
system. It looks for its information under the key "12hour". The
subkeys it uses are the following.
smtphost
The full name of the SMTP server to use for sending emails.
from
The string to put in the "From" line of the sent emails.
subject
The string to put in the "subject" line of the sent emails.
timespan
How far into the past the script should look for tests. The value
should be a string that will be understood as a time value by MySQL
(for example, "12:00:00" is twelve hours, zero minutes and zero
seconds).
debug
A Perl boolean value. If it is true, emails will be printed to
standard output instead of sent.
sourcestring
The string identifying the source of the tests to consider mailing
about.
