Brian Cunnie 3fc089b7a7 wildcard-dns-http-server: better error-checking
- when DNS gets a permission error, it helpfully suggests using `sudo`
- when DNS can't bind to `INADDR_ANY`, it's probably because it's Fedora
running `systemd.resolved` on port 53 of 127.0.0.53, so we try to bind
to each address individually.
- we don't implement similar checks for the HTTP server:
  - if it's a permission problem, the DNS server has already warned the
  user.
  - if it's a binding problem, the user is probably running an HTTP
  server bound to `INADDR_ANY`, so we might as well exit.
- we ported this code from main `sslip.io` DNS server.

BOSH Release

This is a BOSH Release of the Golang-based custom sslip.io DNS server. It's not meant to be used by anyone other than myself.

In the BOSH manifest, use this in the releases: section:

- name: sslip.io
  sha1: 3a59e21554da481463f292e2f11becf94e4a51aa
  url: https://github.com/cunnie/sslip.io/releases/download/1.1.2/sslip.io-release-1.1.2.tgz
  version: 1.1.2

And, in the instance_groups: section:

  jobs:
  - name: sslip.io-dns-server
    release: sslip.io

Here's a sample BOSH manifest.

After deploying, test the server. Let's assume the deployed VM's IP is 10.0.250.23:

dig +short 127.0.0.1.sslip.io @10.0.250.23
