-<h1> The <tt>dnsfunnel-daemon</tt> program </h1>
-
-<p>
-<tt>dnsfunnel-daemon</tt> binds to a local UDP socket, drops its
-privileges, then executes into <a href="dnsfunneld.html">dnsfunneld</a>.

-<ul>
- <li> dnsfunnel-daemon creates a UDP inet domain socket and binds it

-(normally 53). </li>
- <li> Depending on the options it has been given, it may chroot and lose
