[kdig] Disconcerting option for DoH
kdig online help and man page say:
+[no]https[=URL]
But it actually expects a path, not a complete URL (it is in the man page but the summary is disconcerting).

I don't think I understand the issue. Could you please specify it better?
As described on the man page, the [URL]
value consists of two parts, [authority]
and [/path]
. Authority can be omitted and specified as host (@
parameter), /path
is set to /dns-query
by default (based on the relevant RFC). It is therefore possible to define either authority, path, or a combination of the two.
Hello @bortzmeyer, is the problem the fact that while URL consists of [scheme]
(for example https://), [authority]
and [path]
, what kdig expects is [authority]
and [path]
only (that is, no [scheme]
), thus the use of word URL is wrong here?
