  • Read the default configuration file `/etc/named.conf`, read any initial data and listen for queries:
    named
  • Read a custom configuration file:
    named -c path/to/named.conf
  • Use IPv4 or IPv6 only, even if the host machine is capable of utilising other protocols:
    named -4|-6
  • Listen for queries on a specific port instead of the default port 53:
    named -p port
  • Run the server in the foreground and do not daemonize:
    named -f
