rbldnsd is a small and fast DNS daemon which is especially made to serve
|
||
|
DNSBL zones. This daemon was inspired by Dan J. Bernstein's rbldns
|
||
|
program found in the djbdns package.
|
||
|
|
||
|
rbldnsd is extremely fast - it outperforms both bind and djbdns greatly.
|
||
|
It has very small memory footprint.
|
||
|
|
||
|
The daemon can serve both IP-based (ordb.org, dsbl.org etc) and
|
||
|
name-based (rfc-ignorant.org) blocklists. Unlike DJB's rbldns, it has
|
||
|
ability to specify individual values for every entry, can serve as many
|
||
|
zones on a single IP address as you wish, and, finally, it is a real
|
||
|
nameserver: it can reply to DNS metadata requests. The daemon keeps all
|
||
|
zones in memory for faster operations, but its memory usage is very
|
||
|
efficient, especially for repeated TXT values which are stored only
|
||
|
once.
