Abottleinfrontofme Frontallobotomy, Thanks for all the comments first of all!

Here are my suggestions:

It may be pretty tricky to set it up. First make sure you have compiled adns C library [1] (compiled as adns.so or adns.a) in your system library path (or local library path, exported via LD_LIBRARY_PATH).

Next, get the adns Python library wrapper around adns C library at [2] and build it via command [3].

Next, you can install the library wrapper via [4] and then finally try to run 'import adns'.

Another way is to do it all under virtualenv [5]. This way library installations won't pollute the system.

[3] python setup.py build
[4] python setup.py install
[5] http://pypi.python.org/pypi/virtualenv
