I will order them via numbers so it’s easier to answer 1) So as far as I … Read More “DNS functionality in safari iOS?” »

Not sure if anyone else is noticing this, but today has been spotty with 1.1.1.1. Never had this issue before but I remediated it on my end by switching to Google’s 8.8.8.8. submitted by /u/DrShadowSML [link] [comments] Powered by WPeMatico

Hello folks, I’m wondering if any one here can help me troubleshoot my nameserver issue. I recently setup a webserver using VestaCP and made my own “Personal nameservers,” which point to my Webserver’s IP. I am only using one nameserver “ns1” with NameCheap and set ns1.mydomain.com under the “Custom DNS” option. Currently when I try … Read More “DNS issues with nameservers” »

I wanted to use different DNS servers at my home and not in school so that I do go through the School filtering. The DNS I put during home will likely bypass the school filtering.

It’s been done without any due process by I.C.E. and the FBI before for lesser sites.

UPDATE: Got a hold of their web department via the phone and they did the necessary redirect. I know little about DNS. I have a client that has a domain on vistaprint (absolutely horrible service) and I need to redirect it to another domain. They have no redirect option. The only option I see is … Read More “Not sure if this is the right place” »

Interesting question — know of any service that will allow you to grab a domain with an underscore in it? Like so: this_thing.com. https://stackoverflow.com/questions/2180465/can-domain-name-subdomains-have-an-underscore-in-it I’m not sure its possible. This doc seems to say that it’s valid but not recommended. Route53 and others I checked do not allow this. Feel free to point me in … Read More “Any registrar that I can grab a domain with an _ in it?” »

I remember reading something that said whenever a user makes a DNS request, the end users mac address is provided to the dns server. Thats always stuck with me as something interesting. If fail2ban prevents hackers from abusing port 22 (ssh) by blacklisting their ip, can we do something similar for DNS by blacklisting the … Read More “DNS version of Fail2Ban?” »
