NAME

       avahi-dnsconfd - Unicast DNS server from mDNS/DNS-SD configuration dae-
       mon


SYNOPSIS

       avahi-dnsconfd [options]

       avahi-dnsconfd --kill

       avahi-dnsconfd --refresh

       avahi-dnsconfd --check


DESCRIPTION

       avahi-dnsconfd connects to a running avahi-daemon and runs  the  script
       /usr/local/etc/avahi/avahi-dnsconfd.action  for each unicast DNS server
       that is announced on the local LAN. This is useful for configuring uni-
       cast DNS servers in a DHCP-like fashion with mDNS.

       -D | --daemonize
              Daemonize after startup and redirect log messages to syslog.

       -s | --syslog
              Log to syslog instead of STDERR. Implied by --daemonize.

       -k | --kill
              Kill an already running avahi-dnsconfd. (equivalent to sending a
              SIGTERM)

       -r | --refresh
              Tell an already running avahi-dnsconfd to refresh the DNS server
              data. (equivalent to sending a SIGHUP)

       -c | --check
              Return  0 as return code when avahi-dnsconfd is already running.

       -h | --help
              Show help

       -v | --version
              Show version information


FILES

       /usr/local/etc/avahi/avahi-dnsconfd.action: the script to  run  when  a
       DNS server is found or removed.

       ing --kill to avahi-daemon.
