Hi, in Rimu's DNS management, it is possible to configure the "Default TTL" for the zone. The fact that it is a "default" implies that there might be a way to override it. Is there?

Most of my hosts (example.com, www.example.com) can have a very high TTL, but one of them (dyndns.example.com) should have a much lower TTL.

It would be nice to configure this in Rimu's DNS tool.

If you use the dyndns.jsp page, then one of the side effects is to set the ttl on the record 'low' (to 5 minutes). That is the only way (other than changing the default ttl) to change the ttl on a record...

Thanks for the reply. Yes, I do already use the dyndns.jsp page, I just didn't know it affected the TTL. So this solution works well for me. Thanks!
