Bug#93110: RFP: MaraDNS -- a DNS server that strives to be secure

[Tommi Virtanen <tv-nospam-32a64f@debian.org>]

Package: wnpp
Severity: wishlist

This DNS server has the following goals:

     Security. A DNS server needs to be secure. I have a number of
     security features in the code,

     including: 
       1.The code uses a special string library which is resistant to buffer overflows. 

       2.The code, if started as root, mandates running as an
         unprivledged user in a chroot() jail.

     Open-Source. This DNS server is public-domain code. There are no
     restrictions attached to this code.

     Simplicity. This DNS server has the minimum number of features
     needed to correctly act as an authoritative name server for a
     domain.

  http://www.maradns.org/
 (that's temporarily down, use http://www.samiam.org/maradns/ for now)

It's public domain.
