About the site

After creating Qmailrocks.org, my site which documents the installation Qmail, I decided to start playing around with Dan Bernstein's djbdns DNS server application. Like qmail, I found djbdns to be simple, yet elegant, and rock solid in terms of it's reliability and security. It runs out of daemontools, so you know it will never die unless someone unplugs the damn server. After getting my djbdns wings and spending enough time "command line side" to know what I was doing, I then looked for a nice web interface that would make the day to day DNS management tasks a breeze. There are not a whole lot of these out there. Of the few that I did find, I've found Vegadns to be my favorite. So, after getting everything up and running, I decided to once again publish my work on the Internet so that others can use it as a resource when they embark on their own djbdns adventures. Have fun, and good luck!

My name is Eric Siegel. I currently live and work out of Atlanta, GA as a freelance system administrator and enginner for large ecommerce based companies. Oddly enough, most of my clientele are in California. I am not an expert an djbdns. I don't claim to know everything there is to know about djbdns. Though I hope people find this guide useful, it is by no means a definitive and error-free guide to djbdns. I make mistakes, so always feel free to point them out to me. Making sites like this is a learning experience for me too, so I value any and all feedback as it helps me to constantly improve this site.
