tinydns-conf(8) FreeBSD System Manager's Manual tinydns-conf(8)

tinydns-conf - sets up a DNS publication service.

tinydns-conf acct logacct D ip

This is a reference page. For tutorial information, see the instructions for
running a DNS server (http://cr.yp.to/djbdns/run-server.html).

tinydns-conf creates a service directory D that runs tinydns(8). The name D must start with a slash and must not contain any special characters. Normally D is /etc/tinydns.

You can run the service under svscan(8) by creating a symbolic link in the svscan(8) directory:

ln -s D /service

The service will start within five seconds, and will be restarted upon reboot. You can use svc(8) to control the service.

tinydns-conf arranges for tinydns(8) to chroot to D/root and to run under the uid and gid of acct. The name acct must not contain any special characters.

tinydns-conf creates D/root/Makefile to run tinydns-data(8) upon request.

tinydns-conf arranges for tinydns(8) to listen for UDP packets on port 53 of ip, and to send outgoing packets from ip.

tinydns-conf creates an automatically rotated log directory in D/log/main. The logs are owned by logacct. The corresponding multilog(8) processes run under the uid and gid of logacct. The name logacct must not contain any special characters.

tinydns(8), svscan(8), svc(8), multilog(8), axfrdns-conf(8), rbldns-conf(8), dnscache-conf(8), walldns-conf(8)
