Hi,

I Just installed dnsdist using apt on a fresh ubuntu installation and when
I try to use the command dnsdist i'm receiving the following

root at dnsdist:~# dnsdist
Unable to read configuration from '/etc/dnsdist/dnsdist.conf'
Fatal error: binding socket to 127.0.0.1:53: Address already in use


When I check with netstat port 53 is being utilised by dnsdist

root at dnsdist:~# netstat -anp|grep dnsdist
tcp        0      0 127.0.0.1:53            0.0.0.0:*               LISTEN
     1234/dnsdist
udp        0      0 127.0.0.1:53            0.0.0.0:*
    1234/dnsdist

Also i tried using the command dnsdist --client command and

root at dnsdist:~# dnsdist --client
Unable to read configuration from '/etc/dnsdist/dnsdist.conf'
Connecting to 127.0.0.1:5199
Fatal error: connecting socket to 127.0.0.1:5199: Connection refused


Any Suggestions?

Regards,
Et
