Posadis is a DNS server project with the goal to create a free,
|
|
reliable, portable, fast, lightweight, easy to use, standards compliant,
|
|
and functionally complete, Domain Name System server implementation.
|
|
|
|
The Top-10 of most important Posadis features:
|
|
- Support for the standard DNS master file format. Posadis supports
|
|
some BIND extensions as well.
|
|
- Support for zone transfers. Posadis is able to answer both AXFR and IXFR
|
|
queries (though it always sends the complete zone), and it is able to act as
|
|
a secondary using AXFR and IXFR as well.
|
|
- Support for DNS NOTIFY to ensure fast zone change propagation.
|
|
- Support for most standard RR types: A, NS, MD, MF, CNAME, SOA, NULL, WKS,
|
|
PTR, HINFO, MX, TXT, RP, AFSDB, PX, AAAA, SRV, NAPTR, A6 and DNAME. Posadis
|
|
can also tunnel RR types it doesn't recognize.
|
|
- Support for many platforms: both Windows and Unix-like platforms such as
|
|
Linux, FreeBSD and Mac OS X.
|
|
- Support for IPv6: listning on IPv6 sockets for both Windows and Unix, and
|
|
support for AAAA and A6 resource records and bitstring labels.
|
|
- "Tunnel zones": forward queries to other nameservers.
|
|
- "Hint zones": hint to other nameservers. Posadis can automatically update the
|
|
nameserver list for hint zones.
|
|
- Support for both UDP and TCP: you can specify on which IP addresses and ports
|
|
you want Posadis to listen.
|
|
- A concise and up-to-date user manual describing all of Posadis' features in
|
|
detail.
