## What is MaraDNS ? MaraDNS is a package that implements the Domain Name Service (DNS), an essential internet service. MaraDNS has the following advantages: Secure. MaraDNS has the best security history of any currently maintained DNS server; there have been no exploitable security holes found in a stable release of MaraDNS that were caused by MaraDNS' code. Supported. MaraDNS has a long history of being maintained and updated. MaraDNS was originally created in 2001. MaraDNS 1.0 was released in 2002 and MaraDNS 1.2 was released in December of 2005. MaraDNS has been extensively tested, both with a SQA process and with over four years of real-world use. MaraDNS continues to be fully supported: The most recent release was done on February, 14 2007. Easy to use. A basic recursive configuration needs only a single three-line configuration file. A basic authoritative configuration needs only a four-line configuration file and a one-line zone file. MaraDNS is fully documented, with both easy-to-follow tutorials and a complete and up-to-date reference manual. Small. MaraDNS is well suited for embedded applications and other environments where the server must use the absolute minimum number of resources possible. MaraDNS' binary is smaller than that of any other currently maintained recursive DNS server. Open Source. MaraDNS is fully open-source, The license is a two-clause BSD license that is almost identical to the FreeBSD license. A full comparison between MaraDNS and other DNS servers is available in the advocacy document. ## Mailing list To join the mailing list, send an email to list-request@maradns.org with the word "subscribe" in the subject and body of the message.
