NAME

       key.dns_resolver.conf - Kernel DNS resolver config

DESCRIPTION

       This  file is used by the key.dns_resolver(5) program to set parameters.  Unless otherwise
       overridden with the -c flag, the program reads:

              /etc/key.dns_resolver.conf

       Configuration options are given in key[=value] form, where value is optional.  If present,
       the  value  may be surrounded by a pair of single ('') or double quotes ("") which will be
       stripped off.  The special characters in the value may be escaped with a backslash to turn
       them into ordinary characters.

       Lines  beginning  with  a  '#' are considered comments and ignored.  A '#' symbol anywhere
       after the '=' makes the rest of the line into a comment unless the '#' is inside a  quoted
       section or is escaped.

       Leading and trailing spaces and spaces around the '=' symbol will be stripped off.

       Available options include:

       default_ttl=<number>
              The  number  of  seconds to set as the expiration on a cached record.  This will be
              overridden if the program manages  to  retrieve  TTL  information  along  with  the
              addresses  (if,  for  example,  it  accesses  the  DNS directly).  The default is 5
              seconds.  The value must be in the range 1 to INT_MAX.

       The file can also include  comments  beginning  with  a  '#'  character  unless  otherwise
       suppressed by being inside a quoted value or being escaped with a backslash.
