[dnsdist] dnsdist general question

[Federico Olivieri]

Hi Stefan,

Thanks for your reply.

My wanted just an example to show that after the controlSocket command the
prompt remains in dnsdist "mode".

>From README should be

# dnsdist
> makeKey()
setKey("sepuCcHcQnSAZgNbNPCCpDWbujZ5esZJmrt/wh6ldkQ=")

controlSocket("0.0.0.0")


# dnsdist --daemon
# dnsdist --client
>

When instead I have
root at raspberrypi:~# dnsdist
