Hello (into)DNS world!
Adrian Andreias | Tuesday, November 20th, 2007This blog is about the IntoDNS journey. So let’s get started.
What?
IntoDNS checks the health and configuration of DNS servers and mail servers. It’s designed as a tool that helps server and network administrators in day to day job, to identify and fix DNS and mail issues.
Who?
IntoDNS is developed by a team of professionals from Elvsoft. Cristian Tomoiaga, an experienced system administrator, is the main project developer. Ovidiu Mocan and Adi Boiciuc worked on the graphic design and the clean XHTML & CSS code. Adi Andreias contributes to some of the tests and coordinates the whole project.
How?
We chose Python because it’s an elegant and powerful language with great multithreading support. And multithreading is crucial for IntoDNS’ performance. Django sets the web stage for Python and jQuery helps us with some of the tricks.
Where (are the ads)?
A strong project is a project that can sustain itself. But we don’t like web sites that have more ads then content. We don’t plan to overload intodns.com with screaming ads. When we’ll need a bunch of servers to sustain the traffic we ll probably come up with some sponsorship model with a single, small, nonintrusive and industry related ad. Drop us a line if you want to sustain IntoDNS.
Where to?
We plan to continue to improve IntoDNS and make it the best DNS health checker on the web. Feedback is very important to us. So don’t be shy.

Hi,
Some DNS querys aren’t working ok.
I’ve tested some domains from your tool and they resolve incorrectly the ip’s of the DNS servers.
Best Regards,

Do you have specific IP’s we can unblock for IntoDns – LOVE it but the admin blocked various countries and, well, it only kinda works now. If I had the ips, we could have him unblock those. Keep up the great work!

Very impressive. A good clear report which fortunately for me did not show up any problems. We have http://www.guvera.com as the main site and register.guvera.com for pre-registration. We do not intend to have http://www.register.guvera.com so the last report line was not so much an error but a warning. Thanks.

I was looking for a similar website of DNSStuff.com. intoDNS is the one! Actually, I like the design too..
Keep it going!

I assume this project is Romanian since the theme was made by Elvsoft (I could be wrong tho).
I’m willing to support this project if you will ever need a sponsor.
Just drop me a email.
Regards,

Hi. IntoDNS is a great and powerful tool. You’ve mentioned ensuring it is sustainable and I’m certain no one would have any objection to there being a few Google Adsense links along the bottom.
When something DNS or server related is shown, I’d be glad to get diverted and look at an ad or two… if IntoDNS gets supported and is more viable as a result that’s even better. Richard

Overall a good product. I would include SPF record checks and more specific recomendations rather than ‘this is not so good’
Paul says:
How come there is no contact information for intodns.com except for this comment form? What if I have a question I want to ask?

andy says:
thanks. used one or two others that took 45mins to load, this one quickly pointed out that i forgot to add a third ns record to match the domain’s ns records.
next time i went to do a test (just now) i skipped over all the google results for “whats that site again”
