Hi, I'm sorry that you got frustated. I see that the dbndns package lacks documentation that's included in the djbdns package. I don't know why you chose the dbndns package instead of djbdns. Would this information in /usr/share/doc/dbndns/README.Debian have helped you?: --- djbdns for Debian ----------------- This package provides the djbdns programs, installed into /usr/bin/, and man pages. When configuring and enabling djbdns services, please note that daemontools' default directory for services on Debian is /etc/service/, not /service/. See http://cr.yp.to/djbdns.html for detailed documentation. -- Gerrit Pape <p...@smarden.org>, Wed, 09 Jan 2008 21:14:00 +0000 --- Apart from these changes, you should be able to configure and run djbdns using upstream's method. The man pages contain exactly the information that you get from http://cr.yp.to/djbdns.html.
