.SH "DESCRIPTION"
.LP
.B Unbound
is an implementation of a DNS resolver, that does caching and
DNSSEC validation.
.P
The available options are:
.TP
.B \-h
Show the version and commandline option help.
.TP
.B \-c\fI cfgfile
Set the config file with settings for unbound to read instead of reading the
file at the default location, @ub_conf_file@. The syntax is
described in \fIunbound.conf\fR(5).
.TP
.B \-d
Debug flag: do not fork into the background, but stay attached to
the console. This flag will also delay writing to the log file until
the thread\-spawn time, so that most config and setup errors appear on
stderr. If given twice or more, logging does not switch to the log file
or to syslog, but the log messages are printed to stderr all the time.
.TP
.B \-v
Increase verbosity. If given multiple times, more information is logged.
This is in addition to the verbosity (if any) from the config file.
