NAME

       tinydns-conf - sets up a DNS publication service.

SYNOPSIS

       tinydns-conf acct logacct D ip

DESCRIPTION

       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 using the update-service(8) program  on  Debian
       GNU/Linux

       update-service --add D

       or  by  creating  a  symbolic  link  in  the  svscan(8)  directory  (normally  /service or
       /etc/service), e.g.:

       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.
