nproxy ====== Synopsis -------- :program:`nproxy` --powerdns-address *ADDRESS* [*OPTION*]... *ADDRESS*...

Its usecase is e.g. a private authoritative server inside a NAT or firewalled LAN where :program:`nproxy` is deployed in the DMZ. The PowerDNS Authoritative Server has the trusted-notification-proxy option that should be set to the address set with *--origin-address* to accept these proxied notifications. :program:`nproxy` also has a health-check option built in. A query for 'pdns.nproxy.' with QType 'TXT' will be responded to with an answer of "OK" (inside the TXT record. When the query is for an A-record, '1.2.3.4.' is returned. Options ------- --powerdns-address
