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
(/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.
- --debug-<module>[=<debug-level>
-
Switch on debug for a particular module and set the debug level if given.
- --help
-
Display program help and exit.
- --version
-
Output version number and exit.
FILES
/etc/mydns.conf
