djbdns is a collection of DNS server software that was written by Daniel J. Bernstein. It is known for its simplicity and security features. In this tutorial, we will explain how to install djbdns on NetBSD.
Before we begin, you will need the following:
The first step is to download the djbdns software from the official website. You can do this by running the following command in the terminal:
# ftp http://cr.yp.to/djbdns/djbdns-1.05.tar.gz
Next, extract the archive using the following command:
# tar -zxf djbdns-1.05.tar.gz
This will create a directory called djbdns-1.05 in the current directory.
Navigate to the djbdns-1.05 directory and compile the software using the following command:
# make
This will create the necessary executables and libraries for djbdns.
To install the software, run the following command:
# make setup check
This will install the software into the appropriate directories and perform a check to ensure everything is working correctly.
The final step is to configure djbdns to work with your network. This involves creating the necessary configuration files and starting the server. The configuration files can be found in the /etc/djb/dns directory.
