xenial (1) desproxy-dns.1.gz

Provided by: desproxy_0.1.0~pre3-8_amd64 bug

NAME

       desproxy-dns - DNS for dynamic connections

SYNOPSIS

          desproxy-dns dns_server proxy_host proxy_port

OPTIONS

       None

DESCRIPTION

       If you have direct DNS access then you don't need to do anything else.  You know you have direct DNS
       access if you can resolve host names to IP addresses.

       NOTE: as desproxy-dns listens in port 53 (which is less than 1024) you may need administrator privileges
       to exec desproxy-dns (in fact if you are running UN*X, you actually have to run desproxy-dns as root).

       OK, so you have a dns server accessible now. But your computer doesn't know anything about that. You must
       configure your network accordingly (again, need to be root in UN*X).

       Edit /etc/resolv.conf and add the line "nameserver 127.0.0.1". You don't have to restart anything. Just
       test ping and see if it works.

ENVIRONMENT

       None.

FILES

       None.
