What is 53 good for?

bind, for running name servers, i.e. something that says where *.repec.org is, in terms of ip address

I doubt I can get it opened in the firewall, as it is a firewall for the whole machine room (if not the university).

usually a firewall is configurable per machine. But bind does not work, it's a permission problem with the pid file. I am comparing with a healthy installation but have not found the problem yet.
