Hallo Cygwinners,
I have successful compiled ¡LaMaraDNS! ( http://www.maradns.org/ )
¡LaMaraDNS! is an alpha-quality authoritative and recursive (caching)
DNS server.
>From the website:
=================
This DNS server has the following features:
Security-aware programming. 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 and/or recursive
name server.
Examples:
=========
$ dig @127.0.0.3 cygwin.com

I have a patch attached if someone wants to test it;)
Just put the patch and the source in one directory and do:
$ tar xvjf maradns-0.8.35.tar.bz2
$ cd maradns-0.8.35
$ patch -p1 < ../maradns.patch
$ make
$ make install
