Fedora 13 images, DNS updates
For all the Fedora fans out there, we now have a Fedora 13 base image for our VPS’s and Cloud Servers.
Fedora 13 is available in both 32-bit and 64-bit variants.
On our DNS platform we have promoted AAAA records (used for IPv6 addresses). Previously AAAA records were only available with Advanced Options enabled. Now they’re visible to everyone by default.
Additionally, we have added support for SPF and NAPTR records.
Originally SPF text records all used a DNS TXT record. This still works. However, there is now an official DNS SPF record. You may continue to use TXT records or you may switch to the newer SPF record type.
NAPTR records are commonly used for mapping phone numbers to SIP servers and other similar things. Enable Advanced Options in Preferences to be able to use NAPTR records.
Both SPF and NAPTR are fully accessible via the API.
