  Description     : Proxy DNS daemon

The Domain Name Relay Daemon (DNRD) is a simple "proxy" nameserver.
It is meant to be used for home networks that can connect to the
internet using one of several ISPs.

DNRD can be setup to forward all DNS queries to the appropriate DNS
server for each of your ISPs.

SECURITY NOTE: dnrd is susceptible to buffer overflow attacks.
However, by default dnrd changes to the "nobody" user. It also does
a chroot to the /etc/dnrd directory, after checking that /etc/dnrd
exists and contains no subdirectories and no executables and is only
writable by root.
