Description-en: Clients provided with Knot DNS (kdig, knsupdate, kzonecheck)
Knot DNS is a fast, authoritative only, high performance, feature
full and open source name server.
.
Knot DNS is developed by CZ.NIC Labs, the R&D department of .CZ
registry and hence is well suited to run anything from the root
zone, the top-level domain, to many smaller standard domain names.
.
This package delivers various client programs related to DNS that are
derived from the Knot DNS source tree.
.
- kdig - query the DNS in various ways
- knsupdate - perform dynamic updates (See RFC2136)
- kzonecheck - zone check tool
.
Those clients were designed to be 1:1 compatible with BIND dnsutils,
but they provide some enhancements, which are documented in respective
manpages.
.
WARNING: knslookup is not provided as it is considered obsolete.
