The example directions on the website are pretty clear, but i still messed it up. But i guess i need to set up the machine to get the latest git repo so that i can have multiple ports per host file. Since the person installing tinc would also be the bind / pdns installer, then i don't see SRV lookups as much of a problem. It would be a tinc net only dns server.
