Simple (forward) DNS with minimal Setup

Server-client architectur. Every client register his address automatically at server. Server hold a table of registred clients. Clients can send requests to get a address of a registred client.

Its possible to setup multiple dns Server with own binded hosts in same network. If host not binded them try to find antother random dns server automatically. startup order of hosts and server not important.

 

Server/Client support some arguments at runtime

dnsserver status / dnsclient status

dnsserver restart / dnsclient restart

dnsserver start / dnsclient start /

dnsserver stop / dnsclient stop

dnsserver print    (printing all entrys)

dnsserver drop  (delete all entrys)

 

Example for usind Lib

local dns=require("dns")

local networkaddress=dns.ns("Computername") -- with local cached entrys to reduce network traffic

--or

local networkaddress=dns.ns("Computername", true) -- witout local cache. forced request on server more secure
