Hello, + Currently, when a query fails, it'll use the next configured DNS server and reattempt to query on that one. Nothing special is done at the moment, but I'm open for suggestions.
+ A possible issue I see is that retrying a(n invalid) query on all possible domains may give a delay since it'll attempt to query all configured dns servers. + If I had to add additional DNS servers, I'd add in the OpenDNS servers. I'd like to add that one of the other nice features of TorDNSd are the filters : An internet connection not leaking out any DNS requests could look suspicious, but using 'filter-direct' rules you could define a couple of 'legal' queries to leak 'on purpose'. - LETO On Tue, Jul 26, 2011 at 11:16 PM, intrigeri <intrig...@boum.org> wrote: > Hi, > > LETO wrote (26 Jul 2011 22:45:21 GMT) : > > It can use one or multiple remote dns servers (by default the google > > ones) meaning you can perform all queries (not just 'A' ones) > > Ok.
