	DJBDNS
		DJBDNS is a simple and secure DNS implementation by Prof.
		DJB feels that it is better to re-use existing tools (such as rsync and ssh) than to implement separate protocols for zone-transfers, as was done with bind.
		DJBDNS is licensed to permit free redistribution and use, and the source code is publicly disclosed, but the license does not permit distribution of modifications (and is thus not open source or free software).

	A look at djbdns
		One of the DNS servers listed was djbdns; which was presented as lacking in features and not ready to handle many sites that are currently served by BIND.
		Bernstein, however, is confident enough of the security of djbdns that he is offering a $500 reward to the first person who turns up a security hole in the code.
		djbdns is "almost free," in that you can download it, compile it, and redistribute it.

	FGA: Some of what is said about "djbdns" is wrong
		Some of what is said about djbdns is wrong.
		Many of their falsehoods stem from applying BIND Think to djbdns - thinking that it works like BIND, thinking that it is configured and operated like BIND, and thinking that it shares the same fundamental design flaws as BIND.
		The idea that djbdns does not support DNS service over TCP is a falsehood, and the deduction that is then made from that premise is thus wholly unsupported.

	NewsForge \| djbdns: An alternative to BIND
		djbdns is easy to install and configure, and is much less complex than BIND, with essentially the same functionality.
		A djbdns DNS server is designed to be just that, a DNS server, meaning that by default it won't be resolving queries for machines outside of your authority.
		To run djbdns, you first need to install another DJB program called daemontools, which is basically a collection of tools used to manage various Unix daemons.

	freshmeat.net: Project details for djbdns
		Security is one of the primary motivations for the development of djbdns.
		DJBDNS will be dead in two years from now, as soon as DJB loses his interest in it, like happened to qmail.
		Some time after DJB loses his interest on it and forgot to continue the project, you'll have to face your boss and say "Yes, I know I've done a lot of advertising about OpenSource and all about, but this project is dead".

	djbdns - Continuous DNS service without continual software upgrades
		Laurent G. Bercot has a patch to djbdns to allow dnscache to resolve a name or forward it depending on the zone of the query.
		configuring djbdns to work with its root servers and thus to enable use of the augmented root.
		Jonathan de Boyne Pollard has written a patch to add a dnsnamex command to djbdns, which prints all of the names that an IP address maps to, instead of just the first one like dnsname does.

	Djbdns - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The djbdns program is a simple and secure DNS implementation created by Daniel J. Bernstein due to his frustrations with repeated BIND security holes.
		This is also probably why many other Linux distributions do not include it.
		The only limitation is that one can not legally distribute a modified version of djbdns; modifications have to be distributed as diff patches.

	djbdns (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-03)
		The djbdns package was born from a couple of observations.
		There are some scripts available at the djbdns home page which can help clean up the data to make it more pleasing to hand-maintain.
		The djbdns package includes some utilities for performing some of the same jobs that programs like host(1), dig(1), and nslookup(8) are used for.

	Installing djbdns for Name Service Part Two
		djbdns, formerly known collectively as DNScache,is a replacement for BIND, written by Dan Bernstein, the author of qmail, a mail transport agent that has been rapidly growing in popularity in the last few years.
		djbdns, like qmail, was written as a replacement to the traditional program used for its service, keeping the needs and requirements of the modern internet in mind.
		Hopefully, you've come to the conclusion that djbdns isn't all that difficult to install or use.

	Setting up djbdns on Mac OS X
		I am using djbdns instead of bind for my own DNS servers, as well as just about any other machine I use.
		His djbdns software was designed to run under the daemontools framework, although with a bit of manual tweaking it is possible to run djbdns services under other frameworks.
		djbdns is designed to run all services as a user other than root.

	anders.com: djbdns / tinydns Record Builder
		SPF records are part of a larger effort to reduce spam by describing a framework where mailservers can check through DNS to see if a host sending an email is authorized to send for that domain.
		Yahoo's DomainKeys plan calls for the use of DNS TXT records to distribute public keys that can be used to verify the authenticity of individual emails.
		Using standard TXT records in djbdns can be problematic because djbdns splits TXT records when they are longer than 127 characters.

	Djbdns? (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-03)
		Djbdns claims to be more secure and more stable than bind, and also claims to be widely used on high-traffic open-source networks.
		Djbdns claims to be more secure and more stable than bind, > and also claims to be widely used on high-traffic open-source > networks.
		I can, however, say that the djbdns documentation is, as Twain said of Wagner's music, not as bad as it sounds.

	Installing djbdns for Name Service Part One
		Since tinydns and the other response daemons included with the djbdns package are so limited in their abilities, exposing only these to the outside world, with a limited set of records (perhaps with walldns serving in-addr.arpa records) allows for a reduction in the risk associated with running a name server.
		In a follow up article, we'll discuss installing some of the other portions of djbdns, including walldns for reverse ip resolution, using axfrdns to allow secondary nameservers to perform zone transfers, and setting up a secondary name server using the djbdns tools.
		The author of djbdns has his reasons for not creating CNAME records, which are fairly sound.

	BIND-to-djbdns Migration Guide / HOWTO
		General djbdns questions should be directed to the dns list.
		Before you actually attempt to install djbdns, you should read some of the docs that are available at cr.yp.to.
		If you are running djbdns on all of your servers, you can skip this part, as there are plenty of more efficient ways of moving your DNS data between your master and slave servers (rsync, for example).

	A djbdns installation guide & tutorial - djbdnsrocks.org
		Now we will install djbdns, the core of our dns server.
		Once djbdns is installed, we will then setup the 2 services we wish to run: tinydns (the authoritative name server) and dnscache (the caching nameserver).
		A successful installation will install djbdns and all its tools into /usr/local/bin.

	Using DJBDNS (DNSCache) On Dial-Up Machines
		djbdns is a collection of DNS client, server (including cache) tools which are secure, fast, have a small memory foot print and are easy to set up.
		Bernstein, author of djbdns, is hereby explicitly permitted to include this information into the FAQ accompanying djbdns as long as that software is freely available for all kind of use.
		If you are using djbdns (formerly known as dnscache) on a dial-up machine, you may have noticed that Netscape will hang if you're offline and resolving domains takes a lot of time until you finally get the error message.

	djbdns
		The latest version of djbdns was released on 2001-02-11 (daemontools is almost as old and ucspi-tcp is even older).
		As far as I know djbdns is the only one that offers a cash prize for security holes therefore it is reasonable to assume it is the most secure or at least equally secure to the most secure.
		It is possible to run djbdns under init and inetd however such configurations will be unsupported if you ask for help in any of the forums where DJB knowledgeable people hang out.

	How do you do DNS?
		DJBdns is the only DNS server I will ever run.

	djbdns information
		I am using djbdns instead of bind for my own DNS servers as well as any machines I may install for my employers and clients.
		The reason for this choice was originally security, but I have since found djbdns to be faster than bind, more flexible than bind, easier to configure, and much better able to tolerate high-load situations such as "floods" and other denial-of-service attacks.
		This page tells how to use tinydns to set up a DNS poison server and block certain domain names from being able to resolve (to block banners, spam, and other undesirable traffic from being able to go through.) This page tells how to do the same thing, for people who are still using BIND.

	Djbdns - Wikipedia
		djbdns ist ein von Daniel J. Bernstein entwickelter DNS-Server.
		Ein Grund für die Entwicklung von djbdns waren die immer wieder auftretenden Sicherheitsprobleme innerhalb von BIND.
		Der Quellcode seiner Programme wird zwar öffentlich zur Verfügung gestellt, allerdings erlaubt Bernstein keine Veränderungen am Quellcode, was es schwierig macht, djbdns in eine Distribution aufzunehmen.

	How to set up a caching DNS server, using dnscache from djbdns
		Bernstein is the author of djbdns, a set of domain name system tools.
		djbdns can do a lot of things, and typically internet service providers will use it to run their own nameservers for hosting multiple domains.
		Finally, djbdns will always pull all zone data from the authoritative nameservers; if you're concerned about DNS poisoning or question the accuracy of your ISP's DNS replies, the best you can do is run your own caching server.

	TNPI - djbdns-macosx
		It then describes a step by step installation procedure for installing djbdns on a Mac OS X computer.
		Djbdns has it's share of tools and settings you can tweak to make your shiny new server rocket across the NOC in a blazing trail of sparks.
		By default, tinydns has pretty reasonable logging defaults but dnscache is very verbose and spits out reams of logs.

	FAQTs - Knowledge Base - View Entry - How is djbdns more secure?
		The fact that Dan Bernstein is prepared to offer a personal $500 security guarantee speaks volumes about the way djbdns was designed (either that, or he's paid too much!).
		The author is sufficiently confident that djbdns is secure such that he is prepared to offer a reward for holes out of his own pocket - something almost unheard of in the software industry, let alone for software whose source is made publicly available!
		A point well worth noting is that djbdns is some 13,000 lines of C code and Bind is well over 100,000 lines of code (I've heard rumours Bind 9 is 300,000 lines).

	Linux.com \| djbdns: An alternative to BIND
		I used to be a fairly keen user of DJB's software, mainly djbdns and qmail, however over time the age of the software makes it discouraging to continue using.
		Trying to follow the installation instructions listed in the article on a Gentoo Linux box results in compilation problems for daemontools and ucspi-tcp, mainly due to errno [cr.yp.to] problems.
		Sure is a hell easier to maintain and use then djbdns and/or bind..
