Description: A DNSCurve Forwarding Name Server
 .
 CurveDNS is the first publicly released forwarding implementation that
 implements the DNSCurve protocol.  DNSCurve uses high-speed high-security
 elliptic-curve cryptography to drastically improve every dimension of DNS
 security.  See http://dnscurve.org/ for protocol details.
 .
 What is so special about this implementation is the fact that any
 authoritative DNS name server can act as a DNSCurve capable one, without
 changing anything on your current DNS environment. The only thing a DNS data
 manager (that is probably you) has to do is to install CurveDNS on a machine,
 generate a keypair, and update NS type records that were pointing towards
 your authoritative name server and let them point to this machine running
 CurveDNS. Indeed, it is that easy to become fully protected against almost
 any of the currently known DNS flaws, such as active and passive cache
 poisoning.
 .
 CurveDNS supports:
 .
 * Forwarding of regular (non-protected) DNS packets;
 .
 * Unboxing of DNSCurve queries and forwarding the regular DNS packets
 .
 * Boxing of regular DNS responses to DNSCurve responses;
 .
 * Both DNSCurve's streamlined- and TXT-format;
 .
 * Caching of shared secrets;
 .
 * Both UDP and TCP;
 .
 * Both IPv4 and IPv6.
