-.Sh NAME
-.Nm ndc
-.Nd name daemon control program
-.Sh SYNOPSIS
-.Nm ndc
-.Op Fl c Ar channel
-.Op Fl l Ar localsock
-.Op Fl p Ar pidfile
-.Op Fl d
-.Op Fl q
-.Op Fl s
-.Op Fl t
-.Op Ar command
-.Sh DESCRIPTION
-This command allows the system administrator to control the operation
-of a name server. If no
-.Ar command
-is given,
-.Ic ndc
-will prompt for commands until it reads EOF.
-.Pp
-Options are:
-.Bl -tag -width Fl
-.It Fl c Ar channel
-Specifies the rendezvous point for the control channel. The default is
-.Pa /var/run/ndc
-(a UNIX domain socket which is also the server's default control channel).
-If the desired control channel is a TCP/IP socket, then the format of the
-.Ar channel
-argument is
-.Sy ipaddr/port
-(for example,
-.Sy 127.0.0.1/54
-would be TCP port 54 on the local host.)
-.It Fl l Ar localsock
-This option will
-.Xr bind 2
-the client side of the control channel to a specific address. Servers can
-be configured to reject connections which do not come from specific addresses.
-The format is the same as for
-.Ar channel
-(see above).
-.It Fl p Ar pidfile
-For backward compatibility with older name servers,
-.Ic ndc
-is able to use UNIX signals for control communications. This capability is
-optional in modern name servers and will disappear altogether at some future
-time. Note that the available
-.Ar command
-set is narrower when the signal interface is used. A likely
-.Ar pidfile
-argument would be something like
-.Pa /var/run/named.pid .
-.It Fl d
-Turns on debugging output, which is of interest mainly to developers.
-.It Fl q
-Suppresses prompts and result text.
-.It Fl s
-Suppresses nonfatal error announcements.
-.It Fl t
-Turns on protocol and system tracing, useful in installation debugging.
-.El
-.Sh COMMANDS
-Several commands are built into
-.Ic ndc ,
-but the full set of commands supported by the name server is dynamic and
-should be discovered using the
-.Ar help
-command (see below). Builtin commands are:
-.Bl -tag -width Fl
-.It Ar /help
-Provides help for builtin commands.
-.It Ar /exit
-Exit from
-.Ic ndc
-command interpreter.
-.It Ar /trace
-Toggle tracing (see
-.Fl t
-description above).
-.It Ar /debug
-Toggle debugging (see
-.Fl d
-description above).
-.It Ar /quiet
-Toggle quietude (see
-.Fl q
-description above).
-.It Ar /silent
-Toggle silence (see
-.Fl s
-description above).
-.El
-.Sh NOTES
-If running in
-.Ar pidfile
-mode, any arguments to
-.Ar start
-and
-.Ar restart
-commands are passed to the new
-.Ic @INDOT@named
-on its command line. If running in
-.Ar channel
-mode, there is no
-.Ar start
-command and the
-.Ar restart
-command just tells the name server to
-.Xr execvp @LIB_C_EXT@
-itself.
