  Description     : DNS(SEC) verification proxy

 Credns is a software program aimed at fortifying DNSSEC by performing
 validation in the DNS notify/transfer-chain. Currently credns is a
 fork of the NSD3 that has been extended with the possibility to asses
 zones (received or updated by AXFR or IXFR) by running an external
 verifier.  Only zones that are deemed correct by the verifier will be
 notified to (public) slave servers and offered for transfer.
 .
 Credns allows to specify an external validator which is called just
 after a zone is received by transfer, but just before the zone will be
 served (and delivered via transfer).
