1 Hi

3 While trying to prevent 'net-dns/pdnsd' to listen on TCP and on to
4 avoid TCP queries, I changed 'tcp_server' parameter to 'off' and
5 'query_method' parameter to 'udp_only' in /etc/pdnsd/pdnsd.conf . But
6 when I restarted pdnsd I found it is still listening on TCP. I checked
7 /etc/conf.d/pdnsd and found no option related to listening to 'TCP'
8 set. So, then I checked /etc/init.d/pdnsd and I found that 'pdnsd' has
9 been launched with '-t' command line argument (enables the TCP server
10 thread. pdnsd will then serve TCP and UDP queries.) . So to disable, I
11 need to append '--notcp' to PDNSDCONFIG in /etc/conf.d/pdnsd. So I
12 think, listening shouldn't be made by default, even if it is, then it
13 should be in configuration file, not in init.d script .

15 So does this qualify as a bug ?

17 I'm a new Gentoo user, so I'm not sure if qualifies as some bug.
