PowerDNS Recursor 3.2PowerDNS Recursor 3.2Posted Mar 11, 2010 6:52 UTC (Thu) by rickmoen (subscriber, #6943)Parent article: PowerDNS Recursor 3.2
Saying "(DNS resolver)", here, is slightly unfortunate usage, because DNS client software (such as the library code for that purpose built into glibc on Linux distributions, and that has /etc/resolv.conf and /etc/nsswitch.conf as conffiles) is traditionally called resolver code. It's a bit clearer to classify PowerDNS Recursor as a "recursive nameserver", in contrast to the other DNS server roles. Rick Moen
