NAME

       gnunet-dns2gns - run a DNS-to-GNS proxy

SYNOPSIS

       gnunet-dns2gns [options]

DESCRIPTION

       Most users will not want to run an DNS to GADS proxy/gateway and thus will not need this program.

       gnunet-dns2gns  runs  a  DNS  resolver which delegates requests to the ".gads" and ".zkey" zones to GADS.
       All other requests are forwarded to  DNS.   This  DNS  proxy  is  useful  for  enabling  non-personalized
       GADS-resolution to an entire network or to offer GADS-resolution to DNS users.

       A DNS-to-GNS proxy using gnunet-dns2gns is available at ".zkey.eu"

       If you do not want to specify a public key and are the owner of the zone that gnunet-dns2gns will use for
       GNS lookups, you need to first create a pseudonym (using "gnunet-identity -C NAME"), and then  assign  it
       to  be  used  for  the "dns2gns" service using "gnunet-identity -e NAME -s dns2gns".  After that, you can
       start the dns2gns service (possibly using gnunet-arm) without specifying a public key using "-z".

OPTIONS

       -c FILENAME,  --config=FILENAME
              Use the configuration file FILENAME.

       -d IP,  --dns=IP
              IP address of a recursive DNS resolver that should be used for non-GADS hostnames.

       -f NAME,  --fcfs=NAME
              Authoritative FCFS suffix to use.  This is the name under which the local  zone's  names  will  be
              made available.  Default is "fcfs.zkey.eu".

       -h, --help
              Print short help on options.

       -L LOGLEVEL, --loglevel=LOGLEVEL
              Use LOGLEVEL for logging.  Valid values are DEBUG, INFO, WARNING and ERROR.

       -s SUFFIX,  --suffix=SUFFIX
              Authoritative  DNS  suffix  to  use.  This is the name under which the GADS ".zkey" zone is mapped
              into the DNS namespace.  Default is "zkey.eu".

       -v, --version
              Print GNUnet version number.

       -z PUBLICKEY, --zone=PUBLICKEY
              Use PUBLICKEY for the zone to resolve GNS names in.  The PUBLICKEY must be  encoded  in  the  text
              format which can be obtained using gnunet-ecc, seen in PKEY records and output by gnunet-identity.
              If this option is not specified, the default ego associated by gnunet-identity for  the  "dns2gns"
              subsystem will be used.
