+Installation note
+
+ adns requires a real nameserver like BIND running on the same system or
+ a nearby one, which must be willing to provide `recursive service'.
+ I.e., adns is a `stub resolver'.
+
+ adns requires that your real nameserver is on the same machine, or
+ connected via a secure network, so that an attacker cannot fake the
+ replies to adns's queries.
