NAME

mydns - SQL-based Internet name daemon.

SYNOPSIS

mydns [-b, --background] [-c, --conf=filename] [-d, --debug] [-D, --database=dbname] [-h, --host=hostname] [-p, --password[=password]] [-u, --user=username] [-v, --verbose] [--create-tables] [--dump-config] [--help] [--version]

DESCRIPTION

mydns is a SQL-based DNS server.

OPTIONS

-b, --background: Run in the background, as a daemon.
-c, --conf=filename: Read configuration from filename instead of the default (/usr/local/etc/mydns.conf). Consult mydns.conf(5) for information about configuring mydns.
-d, --debug: Output huge amounts of diagnostic text while running. This option is only available if MyDNS was configured with the --enable-debug option.
-D, --database=dbname: Use the database called dbname.
-h, --host=hostname: Connect to database server at hostname.
-p, --pass=password: Supply password when connecting to the database server. If the password argument is omitted, it will be prompted on the tty.
-u, --user=username: Use username when connecting to the database server.
-v, --verbose: Enable verbose output while running.
--create-tables: Write CREATE TABLE statements suitable for creating the tables used by mydns to the standard output and exit.
--dump-config: Read the current configuration (if any). Dump all possible configuration options to the standard output, with current values filled in. For options not presently configured, the internal defaults will be used. Output is in mydns.conf format, which is handy for creating a mydns.conf template.
--help: Display program help and exit.
--version: Output version number and exit.

FILES

/usr/local/etc/mydns.conf

The default location of the configuration file. (See mydns.conf(5))
