      as per my trials at http://forum.pfsense.org/index.php/topic,44413.0.html i've got a couple of patches for the dns-server package.

      in short:
      removes the gratioutous use of killall and kill -9 in place of using the native svc tool for stopping & restarting tinydns/dnscache
      includes an ugly hack to get dnscache to start correctly (something is starting it manually by the looks of it, but i cannot figure out what)
      adds the option to allow dnscache to answer queries for more than just the interface on which it is running.

      tinydns.inc.diff.txt

        Usually its easier to send pull requests through github rather than diffs on forum.
        Many people had success through those since its easier to review and approve/include in package.
