Hi all:


I had previously asked this question, although in different language. I was
basically told to go and read before posting the questions. Well, I have
re-read djbdns, FAQ and any other information which was suggested by some of
you. I have basically the same question about "dnscache" and "dnscachex";

I have installed "dnscache" to listen on 127.0.0.1 and then "dnscachex" on
63.113.255.3 and to handle DNS inquiries from the 63.113.255 network. I have
followed procedure as outline in djbdns documentation. Now when I look into
following directories:

        /etc/dnscache/root/ip  > 127.0.0.1
        /etc/dnscachex/root/ip > 127.0.0.1     63.113.255

Now my question. From looking at above information, it seems that both
"dnscache" & "dnscachex" are listening on 127.0.0.1 but "dnscachex" is also
listening on 63.113.255. Therefore, why would anybody install "dnscache" and
not just "dnscachex"?
