Description

After a package reinstallation of 'dns-server' the service hangs after some time without any error messages and is not working anymore.

One reason seams to be that after the package 'dns-server' is deinstalled via the web-gui there are serveral config files left in the filesystem. If the package is installed for a second time the installation process is not starting from a clean environment. This leads to several different problems.

E.g.: the configuration files in the directory '/etc/tinydns' are not deleted when the package is deinstalled. During the second installation of the package serveral users are added via 'pw useradd' command with other uids than during the first installation. This causes the 'supervise' process to generate zombie processes as the directory rights of the confiuguration it uses (under /etc/tindydns/log) are still having the old uids added during the first installation of the package.

Tested with PfSense 1.2.3RC1, dns-server 1.0.6.3
