If you have a good guide to the commands required to install this on a typical system, please edit this page and fill out this section.

+ === Debian GNU/Linux ===
+ To install djbdns on Debian you need to fetch (with apt for example) the packages "daemontools-installer" and "djbdns-installer". What this packages will do is fetch the source code, compile it, and create Debian packages both for daemontools and djbdns.
+ After installing those packages, you can issue the commands "build-daemontools" and "build-djbdns" which will create the final debian packages and prompt for installation.
+ Example:
+
+ {{{
+ apt-get update
+ apt-get install djbdns-installer daemontools-installer
+ build-daemontools
+ build-djbdns
+ }}}
+
+ Note that you may keep and reuse (just not redistribute) the debian packages created with the installer packages.
+
+ After installing djdbs, you need to create the "dnscache" instance under /service.
+ Suposing you want the cache to listen on the loopback device, you would do:
+
+ {{{
+ dnscache-conf dnscache dnslog /service/dnscache 127.0.0.1
+ }}}
