# PowerDNS Authoritative Server Hey there! This app contains a [PowerDNS Authoritative DNS server](https://doc.powerdns.com/authoritative/). With this, you have the full power of PowerDNS at your fingertips. By default, it is configured as a primary server. The configuration is stored in the file called `/app/data/config/pdns.conf` and the `pdns.d` subdirectory. After you have made changes to it you can restart just powerdns-server by running `supervisorctl restart powerdns-server`. It uses the sqlite3 backend, and has an administrative web interface. For security purposes this is disabled by default. In order to use the admin interface, you must change the webserver and api settings in the `01-api.conf` file.
