pdnsd is configurable by a config file or using the program "pdns-ctl" that comes with the package. Unlike
BIND , pdnsd stores cached DNS records on disk for long term retention and will not purge the cache upon program startup or shutdown. pdnsd is designed to be highly adaptable to situations where net connectivity is slow, unreliable, unavailable, or highly dynamic, as is the case withwifi hotspots ordialup internet. This program is also has a limited capability of acting as an authoritative nameserver for a localDNS zone within aprivate network .The program is released under the
GNU General Public License (GPL).ee also
