SYNOPSIS

   desproxy-dns dns_server proxy_host proxy_port

OPTIONS

None

DESCRIPTION

If you have direct \s-1DNS\s0 access then you don't need to do anything else. You know you have direct \s-1DNS\s0 access if you can resolve host names to \s-1IP\s0 addresses.

\s-1NOTE:\s0 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).

\s-1OK\s0, 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 \*(L"nameserver 127.0.0.1\*(R". You don't have to restart anything. Just test ping and see if it works.

ENVIRONMENT

None.

FILES

None.
