NXDOMAIN hijacking is bad, a stupid idea by greedy people who want more Web traffic, but who do not know how DNS is supposed to work. See "--bogus-nxdomain" in the man page. Or better yet, find a better upstream nameserver to use. I run my own named(8) caching resolver on an alternate port for dnsmasq to use. It's pretty simple, using --server and --no-resolv settings. I changed the ports to non-privileged ones, so my named can be started by and run as a non-root user. -- Offlist mail to this address is discarded unless "/dev/rob0" or "not-spam" is in Subject: header
