checkdns cannot open configuration file

[simon@…]

$ checkdns google.com
loadconfig: cannot open checkdns configuration file /opt/local/etc/checkdns/checkdns.conf, exiting...

Could this be a permissions issue? There is no man page and the help didn't tell me much:

$ checkdns -h
Usage: checkdns [options]
options:
-c		configuration file
-h		prints this help
-v		version number

EnderUNIX CheckDNS 0.5

ATILIM BOY <aboy@enderunix.org>

any ideas?

I'd imagine you need to copy /opt/local/etc/checkdns/checkdns.conf.sample to /opt/local/etc/checkdns/checkdns.conf and edit it according to your needs.

@jmr: Sounds logical to me.

@simon: If that's not it, ask the developers of checkdns how to use their software.
