maradns is a DNS server written with security, simplicity,
and performance in mind.
Features:
* Security-aware programming.
A DNS server needs to be secure.
There's a number of security features in the code, including:
1. The code uses a special string library which is
resistent to buffer overflows.
2. The code, if started as root, mandates running as
an unprivileged user in a chroot() jail.
* Open-Source.
This DNS server is BSD licensed 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 and/or recursive
name server.
