    Hi,

    I wish to run DNS Resolver, but I still need to keep using bind at the same time.

    Bind is working well and has been for a while, but I want to use pfBlockerNG`s DNSBL functions (hence the DNS resolver need).

    I know enough to change the port for DNs resolver from 53 to something else (I tried 2000 as a first step). When I start DNS resolver, I get this error:

    /services_unbound.php: The command '/usr/local/sbin/unbound -c /var/unbound/unbound.conf' returned exit code '1', the output was '[1508948355] unbound[2375:0] error: can't bind socket: Address already in use for 127.0.0.1 [1508948355] unbound[2375:0] error: cannot open control interface 127.0.0.1 953 [1508948355] unbound[2375:0] fatal error: could not open ports'
    

    To me untrained eyes, it seems I need to change port 953 to something else, but I cannot  figure out where or how.

      The PR has been lingering on GitHub for almost two months…
