Summary

The Knot DNS Resolver is a caching full resolver implementation written in C

and LuaJIT, including both a resolver library and a daemon. Modular

architecture of the library keeps the core tiny and efficient, and provides

a state-machine like API for extensions.

The package is pre-configured as local caching resolver.

To start using it, just start the local DNS socket:

BEWARE:

Because of https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1366968

Update to upstream version 1.3.1.

su -c 'dnf upgrade knot-resolver' at the command line.
