---- ResDB structure (As written by Sarah.ano 10/March/2014)
-When I 'joined' anonet I was told to update the resdb.
-This in itself isnt all that hard to do if someone helps you.
-But when that isnt the case youre kind of stuck.
-There isnt a helpful README that says exactly what to do, or even what is necesary.
-As of writing, there isnt anything on the anonet wiki about it either.
-Maybe this can be that README?
-
--- ResDB in a nutshell
-ResDB is where people write down what they own.
-If its not in the ResDB, people wont know its yours.
-Things like tinydns use the db/dom directory to find relevant DNS servers.
-Chakra in #anonet uses all information to answer requests. (try @asowner <num>)
-
--- A smallish disclaimer
-Do not blindly run anything you find in ResDB.
-Someone could have edited, well, anything, to include a rm -rf / (or worse)
-Everything is written in human readable languages. So just cat the scripts and read them.
-You might even learn something.
-
--- What are all these things?
-Short explanation on what everything in resdb is.
-doc/ 	 Where people put documentation. A bit sparse. Also where this file should be.
-db/ 	 Ill get to that later. Its the important bit.
-contrib/ Full of a lot of misc things that people found useful enough to include. Most of it is not documented. Run with care.
-scripts/ Mostly scripts directly related to working with ResDB. Again, run with care.
-
-The executables are related to running your own git and serving your modified ResDB.
-./configure will configure git commit relevant stuff, and also configure gitd.
-./gitd will run the git server. Optimally you would use this to serve your modified ResDB to others. Once someone else has it, it will usually spread fast.
-./git-commit will commit whatever canges you made. You should always do this when done fucking with resdb. People cant pull uncommited changes.
-
-Once you want to announce your changes, just go to #anonet and tell people to pull from git://<yourgitdip>/
-Note that many people set up a proper git server to serve ResDB and other things. The included gitd is a bootstrap and potential hazard. (Since future commits might put bad things in there.)
-
--- DB Structure
-- db/as/
-Every claimed AS has a directory here. Inside is a single file called 'owner'.
-That file simply contains the handle of whoever owns that AS.
-To add yourself, either create these things manually or use a script. (scripts/add_as)
-
-- db/dom/
-Inside is a directory for each TLD in use. In each TLD directory are domain names.
-Each domain name directory contains another 'owner' file, and a ns directory.
-The ns directory should contain a file named 'a.ns.<domain>.<tld>' or something similar.
-In that file should be a valid anonet ip to a DNS server. This DNS server will be asked about your domain and is required.
-There is also a script for this (scripts/add_dom), but take care to give a valid ns as argument too or your domain will be broken.
-
-- db/ip and db/ip6
-Nested directories for each byte of an IP. At the end of that chain is, again, an owner file and a cidr file.
-Doing this manually might cause confusion, headaches and sudden death.
-Id recommend using a script. (scripts/add_ip)
-
-- db/usr
-Kind of freeform. A directory for every handle that cares to add itself.
-Inside, you can put pretty much whatever information you want.
-An adress to your git server, contact information. The filenames should be short and descriptive.
-Just check a few folders yourself and youll get the idea. Maybe find something useful.
-
--- So what do?
-Well, if you are reading this, I assume you are already peered. So you should know your information.
-So go and add it to the relevant places as explained.
-If you are still confused (as you should be) head to #anonet and seek help. You should say Hi anyway.
-Help on other related things (like tinydns) can be found on the wiki or asked for.
-If something doesnt work, fuck around with it untill it does.
