Could you please also fix up the -s in the useradd commands in the article, as those are still broken and not everybody reads the comments before trying the steps in the article. Great article, BTW! I found it after not being able to install tinydns under Debian squeeze (6.0) using apt-get and decided to install from source code instead. Thanks for editing the comment.

It's probably the blogging software. I reentered the following with hyphens, but perhaps it will be broken again: <pre> /usr/sbin/useradd -s /bin/false tinydns /usr/sbin/useradd -s /bin/false dnslog ln -s /etc/tinydns /service </pre> *** Edited by Walker *** Thanks for the note!
