NAME

       ixfrdist - An IXFR/AXFR-only server that re-distributes zones

SYNOPSIS

       ixfrdist [OPTION]...

DESCRIPTION

       ixfrdist  transfers  zones from an authoritative server and re-serves these zones over AXFR and IXFR.  It
       checks the SOA serial for all configured domains and downloads new versions to disk.

       When a SOA query comes in and the client's address is allowed by the  ACL,  ixfrdist  responds  with  the
       latest  SOA  for  the  zone it has.  This query can be followed up with an IXFR or AXFR query, which will
       then be served to the client.  Should an IXFR be served, ixfrdist will condense all  differences  it  has
       for the domain into one IXFR.

       ixfrdist  is  configured  with  a  configuration  file  in  YAML  format.  Please see ixfrdist.yml(5) for
       information.
