Like qmail, djbdns is open source but has a restrictive license which makes distributing it a trifle difficult for many vendors. However, it is distributable in binary form if you follow the license and the packager assures to the best of their ability that the binary package works well and conforms to the default and recommended installation instructions from the main site.

Because of this, MandrakeSoft is unable to ship djbdns directly. However, I have been maintaining a djbdns RPM package since March of 2001 that will run under Mandrake Linux. This does not mean that djbdns is any more difficult to install than any other package for Mandrake Linux. In fact, if you download a special RPM called djbsupport, you will be able to easily install djbdns and other DJB software with a single command.
