The `knotd` program is +the DNS server daemon. + +Options +....... + +**-c**, **--config** *file* + Use a textual configuration file (default is :file:`@config_dir@/knot.conf`). + +**-C**, **--confdb** *directory* + Use a binary configuration database directory (default is :file:`@storage_dir@/confdb`). + The default configuration database, if exists, has a preference to the default + configuration file. + +**-m**, **--max-conf-size** *MiB* + Set maximum size of the configuration database + (default is @conf_mapsize@ MiB, maximum 10000 MiB). + +**-s**, **--socket** *path* + Use a remote control UNIX socket path (default is :file:`@run_dir@/knot.sock`). + +**-d**, **--daemonize** [*directory*] + Run the server as a daemon.

When `knotd` receives a SIGUSR1 +signal, it reloads all configured zones. Upon receiving a SIGINT signal, `knotd` +exits. + +Exit values +----------- + +Exit status of 0 means successful operation. Any other exit status indicates +an error. + +See Also +-------- + +:manpage:`knot.conf(5)`, :manpage:`knotc(8)`, :manpage:`keymgr(8)`, +:manpage:`kjournalprint(8)`. |
