The deamon is used to update DNS tables on a -running unix based DNS server, running BIND 8.1.2 or higher. It's clients -should run the dhis-client 3 or 4 software to send updates. +The server is now modular through the introduction of a services +sub-system. DNS updates are no longer part of the main code but +are now implemented as a module. -You need a full DNS domain to run this server. You should at least have a -domain hosted for you with a primary and backup dns server and 1 -backup mail-exchanger. +The main dhisd process listens to DHIS clients and after authentication +marks these with their dynamic IP address. The request is passed to a +sub-process through a pipe which implements the services for which the +client is subscribed to. Clients may be subscribed to one or more +services individually. +The sub-engine interface does a basic read from stdin and process. -If you don't know what the previous lines where about, -you probably shouldn't try and run this software. +Examples of things DHIS could update: + Dns, Firewalls, tunnel servers, relay access lists, etc ...
