MaraDNS is a DNS server with the following features:
|
|
|
|
* Security-aware programming. A DNS server needs to be secure. There is a
|
|
number of security features in the code, including:
|
|
|
|
1. The code uses a special string library which is resistant to buffer
|
|
overflows.
|
|
2. The code, if started as root, mandates running as an unprivledged
|
|
user in a chroot() jail.
|
|
|
|
* Open-Source. This DNS server is public-domain code. There are no restrictions
|
|
attached to this code.
|
|
|
|
* Simplicity. This DNS server has the minimum number of features needed to
|
|
correctly act as an authoritative name server for a domain.
