NAME

       walldns-conf - sets up a DNS wall service.

SYNOPSIS

       walldns-conf acct logacct D ip

DESCRIPTION

       walldns-conf  creates  a service directory D that runs walldns(8).  The
       name D must start with  a  slash  and  must  not  contain  any  special
       characters.  Normally D is /etc/walldns.

       You  can run the service under svscan(8) by using the update-service(8)
       program on Debian GNU/Linux

       update-service --add D

       or by creating a symbolic link in  the  svscan(8)  directory  (normally
       /service or /etc/service), e.g.:

       ln -s D /service

       The  service will start within five seconds, and will be restarted upon
       reboot.  You can use svc(8) to control the service.

       walldns-conf arranges for walldns to chroot to D/root and to run  under
       the  uid  and  gid of acct.  The name acct must not contain any special
       characters.

       walldns-conf arranges for walldns(8) to listen for UDP packets on  port
       53 of ip, and to send outgoing packets from ip.

       walldns-conf   creates   an  automatically  rotated  log  directory  in
       D/log/main.   The  logs  are  owned  by  logacct.   The   corresponding
       multilog(8)  processes  run under the uid and gid of logacct.  The name
       logacct must not contain any special characters.
