+Lightweight authoritative Name Server with DNSSEC capabilities. Developed by
+the passionate people behind the .eu top-level domain, YADIFA has been built
+from scratch to face today’s DNS challenges, with no compromise on security,
+speed and stability, to offer a better and safer Internet experience.
+
+Package binaries and shared objects linked here dynamically, but by-default
+configure script links it statically, for performance consideration. Static
+linking makes sence only on heavy loaded environment (10+ Mbit DNS traffic,
+5000+ queries/second per server).
+
+YADIFA requires its own user in order to run securely. It is not advised to
+run services as root user without special reason.
+
+
+To add yadifa user in system run as root:
+
+# groupadd -g 332 yadifa
+# useradd -u 332 -d /var/lib/yadifa -g yadifa -s /bin/false yadifa
+
+
+In order to run YADIFA during boot process, add to /etc/rc.d/rc.local :
+
+if [ -x /etc/rc.d/rc.yadifa ]; then
+ /etc/rc.d/rc.yadifa start
+fi
