+The MyDNS backend makes PowerDNS a drop-in replacement for the
+[MyDNS](http://mydns.bboy.net/) nameserver, as it uses the same database schema.
+
+## Configuration Parameters
+### `mydns-host`
+Database host to connect to.
+
+### `mydns-port`
+Port on the database server to connect to.
+
+### `mydns-dbname`
+Name of the database to connect to, "mydns" by default.
+
+### `mydns-user`
+User for the database, "powerdns" by default.
+
+### `mydns-password`
+The user password.
+
+### `mydns-socket`
+Unix socket to connect to the database.
+
+### `mydns-rr-table`
+Name of the resource record table in the database, "rr" by default.
+
+### `mydns-soa-table`
+Name of the SOA table in the database, "soa" by default.
+
+### `mydns-soa-where`
+Additional WHERE clause for SOA, default is "1 = 1".
+
+### `mydns-rr-where`
+Additional WHERE clause for resource records, default is "1 = 1".
+
+### `mydns-soa-active`
+Use the active column in the SOA table, "yes" by default.
+
+### `mydns-rr-active`
+Use the active column in the resource record table, "yes" by default.
+
+### `mydns-use-minimal-ttl`
+Setting this to 'yes' will make the backend behave like MyDNS on the TTL values.
+Setting it to 'no' will make it ignore the minimal-ttl of the zone. The default
+is "yes".
