Works fine now. Thanks!
The problem was due to Tenon iTools with their bind who probably
overwrote QDNS installation.

Now that it works, I see in the logs that QDNS listens on all IP's
(multihoming with 2 ethernet cards) the server is running. I would
like that QDNS listens only on 1 IP, or at least on those running on
the external card.
Is this posssible, and how to?
Thanks,

Mauro
