Hi Steven,

Just to make it clear, "TorDNS" isn't written by any of the Tor
developers. In fact, I don't believe any of us have even tested or tried
to run it.

To make it more fun, last I checked, there are multiple programs out there
called TorDNS (none of which are written/tried/etc by the Tor developers).

So, you're on your own here. If you get it working, you might want to
document it better than the author has. :) And look through the source
code to see if it's something you're happy running.

While you're at it, you might want to look at dns-proxy-tor instead:
