bind9dns

---

This tutorial is for users of Debian GNU/Linux to set up an authoritative DNS server using bind9. An authoritative DNS server is designed to serve records about other hosts. That is, you use an authoritative server to serve A, AAAA, DMARC, SPF, etc., records for given domains. This is not a recursive DNS resolver tutorial, although bind9 can do recursive DNS. If you are looking to protect your node against leaks and/or strengthen DNS privacy on your server, you should head over unbound-dns instead.
