PACKAGE NAME: pdns-recursor-3.2-i586-1_slonly.txz PACKAGE MIRROR: http://packages.slackonly.com/pub/packages/14.2-x86/ PACKAGE LOCATION: ./network/pdns-recursor PACKAGE SIZE (compressed): 340 K PACKAGE SIZE (uncompressed): 980 K PACKAGE REQUIRED: PACKAGE CONFLICTS: PACKAGE SUGGESTS: PACKAGE DESCRIPTION: pdns-recursor: pdns-recursor (high-performance recursive resolver) pdns-recursor: pdns-recursor: PowerDNS consists of two parts: the Authoritative Server pdns-recursor: and the Recursor. Other nameservers fully combine these functions, pdns-recursor: PowerDNS offers them separately, but can mix both authoritative and pdns-recursor: recursive usage seamlessly. The Authoritative Server will answer pdns-recursor: questions about domains it knows about, but will not go out on the net pdns-recursor: to resolve queries about other domains. However, it can use a pdns-recursor: recursing backend to provide that functionality. Depending on your pdns-recursor: needs, this backend can either be the PowerDNS recursor or an external pdns-recursor: one.
