I have tried dnsmasq for a home network dns server, but it has a little problem: cannot cannot make/bind socket: Permission denied
So, I tried to emerge pdnsd. I've used that before with good results. Now, I get this:
| Quote: | if test `whoami` = "root"; then \
chown pdnsd /var/tmp/portage/pdnsd-1.1.10/image//var/cache/pdnsd/pdnsd.cache; \
chown pdnsd /var/tmp/portage/pdnsd-1.1.10/image//var/cache/pdnsd; \
fi
chown: `pdnsd': invalid user
chown: `pdnsd': invalid user
make[3]: *** [install-data-hook] Error 1

I guess I should add a user "pdnsd," but I don't want a /home/pdnsd directory or pdnsd to be a regular user. What are the "adduser" command options to add pdnsd as a system account?
Thanks |
