screen -dmS dingo /path/to/bin/dingo -port=53 -gdns:server=[2a00:1450:401b:800::200e]
```

In macOS, you can use [`launchd`](http://www.launchd.info/). Install `dingo` in `/usr/local/bin`. Login as root `sudo su` (required to listen on 53). Create a service file `/Library/LaunchDaemons/dingo.plist`. Start the service `launchctl load -w /Library/LaunchDaemons/dingo.plist`:
