NAME
       mydns - SQL-based Internet name daemon.

SYNOPSIS
       mydns  [-b,  --background]  [-c,	 --conf=filename]  [-d,	 --debug] [-D,
       --database=dbname] [-h,	--host=hostname]  [-p,	--password[=password]]
       [-u, --user=username] [-v, --verbose] [--create-tables] [--dump-config]
       [--help] [--version]

DESCRIPTION
       mydns is a SQL-based DNS server.

OPTIONS
       -b, --background
	      Run in the background, as a daemon.

       -c, --conf=filename
	      Read  configuration  from	 filename  instead  of	 the   default
	      (/usr/local/etc/mydns.conf).  Consult mydns.conf(5) for informa‐
	      tion about configuring mydns.

       -d, --debug
	      Output huge amounts of  diagnostic  text	while  running.	  This
	      option  is  only	available  if  MyDNS  was  configured with the
	      --enable-debug option.

       -D, --database=dbname
	      Use the database called dbname.

       -h, --host=hostname
	      Connect to database server at hostname.

       -p, --pass=password
	      Supply password when connecting to the database server.  If  the
	      password argument is omitted, it will be prompted on the tty.

       -u, --user=username
	      Use username when connecting to the database server.

       -v, --verbose
	      Enable verbose output while running.

       --create-tables
	      Write  CREATE  TABLE statements suitable for creating the tables
	      used by mydns to the standard output and exit.

       --dump-config
	      Read the current configuration (if any).	Dump all possible con‐
	      figuration  options  to the standard output, with current values
	      filled in.  For options not presently configured,	 the  internal
	      defaults will be used.  Output is in mydns.conf format, which is
	      handy for creating a mydns.conf template.

       --help Display program help and exit.

       --version
	      Output version number and exit.

FILES
       /usr/local/etc/mydns.conf
	      The  default  location  of   the	 configuration	 file.	  (See
	      mydns.conf(5))
