.SH "DESCRIPTION"
.PP
The
\fBb10\-resolver\fR
daemon provides the BIND 10 recursive DNS server\&. Normally it is started by the
\fBbind10\fR(8)
boss process\&.
.PP
This daemon communicates with other BIND 10 components over a
\fBb10-msgq\fR(8)
C\-Channel connection\&. If this connection is not established,
\fBb10\-resolver\fR
will exit\&.
.PP
It also receives its configurations from
\fBb10-cfgmgr\fR(8)\&. Currently no configuration commands are defined\&.
