python-twisted-names-12.0.0-1.fc18.armv6hl

Twisted is an event-based framework for internet applications.

Twisted Names is both a domain name server as well as a client resolver library. Twisted Names comes with an "out of the box" nameserver that can read most BIND-syntax zone files as well as a simple Python-based configuration format. Twisted Names can act as an authoritative server, perform zone transfers from a master to act as a secondary, act as a caching nameserver, or any combination of these. Twisted Names' client resolver library provides functions to query for all commonly-used record types as well as a replacement for the blocking gethostbyname() function provided by the Python stdlib socket module.
