dnscache is a daemon listening on port 53
of 127.0.0.1

You will not be able to bind another daemon
(djbdns) to 127.0.0.1:53. To get both running
simultaneously, you can:

	a) Put dnscache on a different IP
	b) Put djbdns on a different IP
	c) Use different port numbers 
		(somewhat tricky with DNS)

If it is only for local resolution, you can
make up private (RFC1918) IP addresses if you
need a bunch of servers on the same port, but
one of a) or b) will likely do the trick for
you.
