Re: Windstream DNS server - 'entry-not-found.com'?

I run my own bind9 server here locally, you Linux guys may want to do the same.

I just used OpenDNS and I got TWO pop ups when I had a domain not found.

is that a joke? = =

edit:

I tried using 4.2.2.2 and 4.2.2.3 and they don't have any ads or anything, just the normal not found page. yay!

Hmm, I don't know, haven't used OpenDNS for years since I found these other DNS servers. I did time 4.2.2.2 and 4.2.2.4 and both were under 30ms and 3 hops off our Atlanta gateway. You just can't get much faster DNS than that over DSL and not have an in house server.

I started to install bind within minutes of noticing the wildcarding. I am not going to allow an ISP to pollute my internet experience as if my computer was infected with adware.
