Knot DNS is a fast, authoritative only, high performance, feature full and open source name server.

Knot DNS is developed by CZ.NIC Labs, the R&D department of .CZ registry and hence is well suited to run anything from the root zone, the top-level domain, to many smaller standard domain names.

This package provides the 'host' program in the form that is bundled with the Knot DNS. The 'host' command is designed to be 1:1 compatible with BIND 9.x 'host' program.
