[Unbound-users] Feature request: foreground mode

Hi Anand,

With the -d option, unbound does not detach from the terminal.
You can quit it with ^C for example.

- -d is called 'debug_mode' in the source at that point, which could be
why you missed it. The option has no other effects.

Is this the functionality you are looking for?

Best regards,
~   Wouter
