Hi
I've got a pretty recent arch install and decided to run pdnsd. I followed the wiki article but when i try to start pdnsd i get:
# pdnsd -s
* 02/17 22:44:23| pdnsd: error: Could not bind tcp socket: Address already in use
* 02/17 22:44:23| pdnsd: error: Could not bind to udp socket: Address already in use
* 02/17 22:44:23| pdnsd: error: tcp and udp initialization failed. Exiting.same thing happens when i try to start it with
systemctl start pdnsd, and starting at boot with
systemctl enable pdnsd.service.
these are my permissions for the cache files:
# ls -al /var/cache/pdnsd
total 8
drwxrwx--- 2 pdnsd pdnsd 4096 Aug 26 15:20 .
drwxr-xr-x 7 root root 4096 Feb 17 10:41 ..
-rw-rwx--- 1 pdnsd pdnsd 0 Aug 26 15:20 pdnsd.cacheand my /etc/pdnsd.conf:
global {
perm_cache=1024;
cache_dir=/var/cache/pdnsd;
pid_file = /var/run/pdnsd.pid;
run_as=pdnsd;
server_ip = 127.0.0.1; # Use eth0 here if you want to allow other
# machines on your network to query pdnsd.
status_ctl = on;
strict_setuid=on;
paranoid=on; # This option reduces the chance of cache poisoning
# but may make pdnsd less efficient, unfortunately.
query_method=udp_tcp;
min_ttl=15m; # Retain cached entries at least 15 minutes.
max_ttl=1w; # One week.
timeout=9; # Global timeout option (10 seconds).

# debug=on;
}
# The following section is most appropriate if you have a fixed connection to
# the Internet and an ISP which provides good DNS servers.
server {
label= "NET";
ip = 201.6.2.143,201.6.2.23; # Put your ISP's DNS-server address(es) here.
# proxy_only=on; # Do not query any name servers beside your ISP's.
# This may be necessary if you are behind some
# kind of firewall and cannot receive replies
# from outside name servers.

# that the global timeout option.
uptest=none; # Test if the network interface is active.

interval=10m; # Check every 10 minutes.
purge_cache=off; # Keep stale cache entries in case the ISP's
# DNS servers go offline.
edns_query=yes; # Use EDNS for outgoing queries to allow UDP messages
# larger than 512 bytes. May cause trouble with some
# legacy systems.
# exclude=.thepiratebay.org, # If your ISP censors certain names, you may
# .thepiratebay.se, # want to exclude them here, and provide an
# .piratebay.org, # alternative server section below that will
# .piratebay.se; # successfully resolve the names.
}
rr {
name=localhost;
reverse=on;
a=127.0.0.1;
owner=localhost;
soa=localhost,root.localhost,42,86400,900,86400,86400;
}I'd post the debug logs but pdnsd refuses to create them, even with the option uncommented
I've edited /etc/resolv.conf to include the 127.0.0.1 address as the first name server, and created the pdnsd user as instructed by the wiki page. Searching the web i got some very old entries about a conflict with named, which i do not have installed.
Any help would be appreciated, thanks

Do you have anything else on port 53? Try running
netstat -lpn | grep 127.0.0.1:53Last edited by b4data (2013-02-18 06:44:14)

thanks b4data
after reading the wiki and trying to get connman to play nice i gave up and uninstalled it. pdnsd works fine now.
too bad connman seemed like a nice network manager. thanks again

You can try running connmad with -r flag:
-r, --nodnsproxy Don't enable DNS Proxy
