Hello, can anyone kindly point me in the right direction in setting up dictd-server. I am experienced with Linux but new to Fedora and SELinux.
I have installed the package:
dnf install dictd-service
Went through the docs:
/usr/share/doc/dictd-server/INSTALL
Added a dictd config file:
/etc/dictd.conf
Now, I'm a bit confused. There are several example config files in the doc directory, plus a folder of SELinux examples. I haven't allowed access in the dictd.conf file since I'm only going to run on a local machine.
When I attempt to start with systemctl:
/bin/systemctl status dictd.service
I get the following error:
● dictd.service - Dictd Dictionary Server Daemon
Loaded: loaded (/usr/lib/systemd/system/dictd.service; disabled; vendor preset: disabled)

Dec 09 00:09:12 localhost.localdomain systemd[1]: dictd.service: Failed with result 'exit-code'.
I looked through the internet for references, but I guess installing dictd-server on Fedora 25 is not a popular thing to do. Thanks!
