The \s-1BIND\s+1 consists -of a server (or ``daemon'') called \fInamed\fP and a \fIresolver\fP library. -A name server is a network service that enables clients to name resources or -objects and share this information with other objects in the network. This -in effect is a distributed data base system for objects in a computer -network. The \s-1BIND\s+1 server runs in the background, servicing queries -on a well known network port. The standard port for UDP and TCP is specified -in \fI/etc/services\fP. The \fIresolver\fP is a set of routines residing -in a system library that provides the interface that programs can use to -access the domain name services. -.pp -BIND is fully integrated into BSD (4.3 and later releases) -network programs for use in storing and retrieving host names and address. -The system administrator can configure the system to use BIND as a -replacement to the older host table lookup of information in the network -hosts file \fI/etc/hosts\fP. The default configuration for BSD uses -BIND. |
