Please help me solve the problem about dict and dictd.

[Qiang <linux.liuqiang@163.com>]

Hello, guys!
Those days, I installed dictd-1.9.15.tar.gz
and some dictionary database at the same time.

Lastly, binary "dictd" and "dict" were installed in the directory
"/usr/local/sbin" and "/usr/local/bin" respectively.

Below are my "/etc/dictd.conf" and
"/etc/dict.conf"(dict.conf is as the same as ~/.dictrc):
****************************************
$ cat /etc/dictd.conf
access {
        allow localhost
        allow 127.0.0.1
}
database web1913   { data "/usr/lib/dict/web1913.dict.dz"
                     index "/usr/lib/dict/web1913.index" }
database wn        { data "/usr/lib/dict/wn.dict.dz"
                     index "/usr/lib/dict/wn.index" }
database gazetteer { data "/usr/lib/dict/gazetteer.dict.dz"
                     index "/usr/lib/dict/gazetteer.index" }
****************************************
$ cat /etc/dict.conf
server localhost
server dict.org

****************************************
****************************************


Next, I ran the command "/usr/local/sbin/dictd".
But I did not find it in the procedure list.

I also ran the command "dict zoo -c ~/.dictrc -h localhost".
But terminal told me:
Cannot connect to any servers (use -v to see why)

If I ran the command "dict zoo",
terminal gave me the explanation of "zoo".

I am confused.

Thanks.
