Description-en: simple security-focused authoritative Domain Name Service server
MaraDNS is an easy to configure DNS server that functions as an
authoritative domain name server. MaraDNS is
optimised for serving a small number of domains quickly and
efficiently. Well suited to host your own private DNS server
for making up subdomains with minimal fuss. Maradns is
security-aware by utilising a special string library which
is resistant to buffer overflows and mandating to run as an
unprivileged user.
.
For the recursive name server component and IPv6 support see
maradns-deadwood. For TCP and domain transfer support see maradns-zoneserver.
