It is primarily a client. However, with some work, it would be possible to build a server from it. It is a direct port from perl, so is best suited to code that folk are porting from perl, rather than new design work in Ruby. It's pretty "perlish"! I am looking at implementing a new Ruby DNS library, dnsruby ( http://rubyforge.org/projects/dnsruby/), but this is still some time away. This library will be much closer to the Java DNS library ( www.dnsjava.org), which is a nicer, more OO library. Instead of being a direct port (folk wanting to use dnsjava can always run in JRuby), it will be a rubified version, which should be much nicer to work with. HTH Alex.
