+    <title>DESCRIPTION</title>
+    <para>The <command>b10-auth</command> daemon provides the BIND 10
+      authoritative DNS server.
+      Normally it is started by the
+      <citerefentry><refentrytitle>bind10</refentrytitle><manvolnum>8</manvolnum></citerefentry>
+      master process.
+    </para>
+
+    <para>
+      This daemon communicates over a
+      <citerefentry><refentrytitle>msgq</refentrytitle><manvolnum>8</manvolnum></citerefentry>
+      C-Channel connection.  If this connection is not established,
+      <command>b10-auth</command> will exit.
+<!-- TODO what if connection closes later, will b10-auth exit? -->
+    </para>
+
+
+    <para>
+     It also receives its configurations from
+<citerefentry><refentrytitle>b10-cfgmgr</refentrytitle><manvolnum>8</manvolnum></citerefentry>
+      using the REST-ful interface provided by
+      <citerefentry><refentrytitle>b10-cmdctl</refentrytitle><manvolnum>8</manvolnum></citerefentry>.
+      It will honor the <emphasis>database_file</emphasis> configuration
+      to point to the SQLite3 zone file.
+
+<!-- TODO: data source -->
+    </para>
+
+    <note><para>
+      This prototype version uses SQLite3 as its data source backend.
+      Future versions will be configurable, supporting multiple
+      data storage types.
