Other DNS software Servers BIND, the Buggy Internet Name Daemon, is a general-purpose DNS server. BIND is included with current UNIX distributions. MaraDNS is a general-purpose DNS server.
Dents is a general-purpose DNS server.
The distinguishing feature of lbnamed is that it monitors the load of the target servers and avoids giving out the address of a heavily loaded server. I've heard some reports of DNS servers with client-differentiation features similar to tinydns . Caches BIND includes a DNS cache. Dents includes a DNS cache. I don't know why anyone would want to use these caches in place of dnscache .
