| pdnsd is a proxy dns server with permanent caching (the cache contents are written to hard disk on exit) that is designed to cope with unreacheable or down dns servers (for example in dial-in networking). Since version 1.1.0, pdnsd supports negative cacheing. pdnsd can be used with applications that do dns lookups, eg on startup, and cannot be configured to change that behaviour, to prevent the often minute-long hangs (or even crashes) that result from stalled dns queries. Some Netscape Navigator versions for Unix, for example, expose this behaviour. | pdnsd is a proxy dns server with permanent caching (the cache contents are written to hard disk on exit) that is designed to cope with unreacheable or down dns servers (for example in dial-in networking).
