| 13 | Description: a collection of Domain Name System tools | |
| 14 | This package includes software for all the fundamental DNS operations: | |
| 15 | . | |
| 16 | DNS cache: finding addresses of Internet hosts. When a browser wants to | |
| 17 | contact www.hotwired.com, it first asks a DNS cache, such as djbdns's | |
| 18 | dnscache, to find the IP address of www.hotwired.com. Internet service | |
| 19 | providers run dnscache to find IP addresses requested by their customers. | |
| 20 | If you're running a home computer or a workstation, you can run your own | |
| 21 | dnscache to speed up your web browsing. | |
| 22 | . | |
| 23 | DNS server: publishing addresses of Internet hosts. The IP address of | |
| 24 | www.hotwired.com is published by HotWired's DNS servers. djbdns includes | |
| 25 | a general-purpose DNS server, tinydns; network administrators run tinydns | |
| 26 | to publish the IP addresses of their computers. djbdns also includes | |
| 27 | special-purpose servers for publishing DNS walls and RBLs. | |
| 28 | . | |
| 29 | DNS client: talking to a DNS cache. djbdns includes a DNS client C | |
| 30 | library and several command-line DNS client utilities. Programmers use | |
| 31 | these tools to send requests to DNS caches. | |
| 32 | . | |
| 33 | djbdns also includes several DNS debugging tools, notably dnstrace, which | |
| 34 | administrators use to diagnose misconfigured remote servers. | |
