djbdns is a collection of Domain Name System tools. It includes
software for all the fundamental DNS operations:
Add djbdns-1.02: DJBDNS is a collection of Domain Name System tools. It includes several components: * The dnscache program is a local DNS cache. It accepts recursive DNS queries from local clients such as web browsers. It collects responses from remote DNS servers. * The tinydns program is a fast, UDP-only DNS server. It makes local DNS information available to the Internet. * The pickdns program is a load-balancing DNS server. It points clients to a dynamic selection of IP addresses. * The walldns program is a reverse DNS wall. It provides matching reverse and forward records while hiding local host information. * The dns library handles outgoing and incoming DNS packets. It can be used by clients such as web browsers to look up host addresses, host names, MX records, etc. It supports asynchronous resolution. * The dnsfilter program is a parallel IP-address-to-host-name converter. * The dnsip, dnsipq, dnsname, dnstxt, and dnsmx programs are simple command-line interfaces to DNS. * The dnsq and dnstrace programs are DNS debugging tools. Documentation is only available on the web site, sorry. Submitted by Tomasz Luchowski <zuntum@eik.pl> in PR 11675.

* DNS cache: finding addresses of Internet hosts. When a browser
wants to contact www.hotwired.com, it first asks a DNS cache,
such as djbdns's dnscache, to find the IP address of www.hotwired.com.
Internet service providers run dnscache to find IP addresses
requested by their customers. If you're running a home computer
or a workstation, you can run your own dnscache to speed up your
web browsing.
* Added Fefe's IPv6 patch ( http://www.fefe.de/dns ) * Included two small logfile formatters written in perl - dnscache-log.pl and tinydns-log.pl (from http://www.djbdns.org) Patch sent in by Tomasz Luchowski <zuntum@eik.pl> in private mail.

* DNS server: publishing addresses of Internet hosts. The IP address
of www.hotwired.com is published by HotWired's DNS servers. djbdns
includes a general-purpose DNS server, tinydns; network administrators
run tinydns to publish the IP addresses of their computers. djbdns
also includes special-purpose servers for publishing DNS walls
and RBLs.
* DNS client: talking to a DNS cache. djbdns includes a DNS client
C library and several command-line DNS client utilities. Programmers
use these tools to send requests to DNS caches.
djbdns also includes several DNS debugging tools, notably dnstrace,
which administrators use to diagnose misconfigured remote servers.
