[Pdns-users] Custom compiled PDNS 2.9.10, not listening?

[Mike Benoit]

I tried stracing pdns_server when I started it manually, and it seemed
to be reading the correct config file:

open("/etc/powerdns/pdns.conf", O_RDONLY|O_LARGEFILE) = 4
fstat64(4, {st_mode=S_IFREG|0644, st_size=6741, ...}) = 0
mmap2(NULL, 4096, PROT_READ|PROT_WRITE, MAP_PRIVATE|MAP_ANONYMOUS, -1,
0) = 0x40014000
read(4, "# Added by install script\n#modul"..., 4096) = 4096
read(4, "essing\tDo out of zone additional"..., 4096) = 2645
read(4, "", 4096)                       = 0
close(4)                                = 0

[root at ns1 sbin]# ./pdns_server --daemon=no --local-address=127.0.0.1
--local-port=999 --launch=gmysql

Hrmm, if I specify all those options on the command line, it seems to be
working, very strange.
