If no -.Ar command -is given, -.Ic ndc -will prompt for commands until it reads EOF. -.Pp -Options are: -.Bl -tag -width Fl -.It Fl c Ar channel -Specifies the rendezvous point for the control channel. The default is -.Pa /var/run/ndc -(a UNIX domain socket which is also the server's default control channel). -If the desired control channel is a TCP/IP socket, then the format of the -.Ar channel -argument is -.Sy ipaddr/port -(for example, -.Sy 127.0.0.1/54 -would be TCP port 54 on the local host.) -.It Fl l Ar localsock -This option will -.Xr bind 2 -the client side of the control channel to a specific address. Servers can -be configured to reject connections which do not come from specific addresses. -The format is the same as for -.Ar channel -(see above). -.It Fl p Ar pidfile -For backward compatibility with older name servers, -.Ic ndc -is able to use UNIX signals for control communications. This capability is -optional in modern name servers and will disappear altogether at some future -time. Note that the available -.Ar command -set is narrower when the signal interface is used. A likely -.Ar pidfile -argument would be something like -.Pa /var/run/named.pid . -.It Fl d -Turns on debugging output, which is of interest mainly to developers. -.It Fl q -Suppresses prompts and result text. -.It Fl s -Suppresses nonfatal error announcements. -.It Fl t -Turns on protocol and system tracing, useful in installation debugging. -.El -.Sh COMMANDS -Several commands are built into -.Ic ndc , -but the full set of commands supported by the name server is dynamic and -should be discovered using the -.Ar help -command (see below). Builtin commands are: -.Bl -tag -width Fl -.It Ar /help -Provides help for builtin commands. -.It Ar /exit -Exit from -.Ic ndc -command interpreter. -.It Ar /trace -Toggle tracing (see -.Fl t -description above). -.It Ar /debug -Toggle debugging (see -.Fl d -description above). -.It Ar /quiet -Toggle quietude (see -.Fl q -description above). -.It Ar /silent -Toggle silence (see -.Fl s -description above). -.El -.Sh NOTES -If running in -.Ar pidfile -mode, any arguments to -.Ar start -and -.Ar restart -commands are passed to the new -.Ic @INDOT@named -on its command line. If running in -.Ar channel -mode, there is no -.Ar start -command and the -.Ar restart -command just tells the name server to -.Xr execvp @LIB_C_EXT@ -itself. -.Sh AUTHOR -Paul Vixie (Internet Software Consortium) -.Sh SEE ALSO -.Xr @INDOT@named @SYS_OPS_EXT@ , |
