Then as you bring up each component, dnscache, tinydns, axfrdns etc. you simply link their dir's into /service and they should start automagically. Once that is done, each boot will then start svscan which in turn will start anything linked into the /service dir that is configured properly. It's a bit different a methodology the way it all works, but pretty slick once you get it. The 'my life with djbdns' site in combination with the main site docs helps. * Paul Andrews [010325 13:25]: > Looking for some information.
