Package: iodine Version: 0.5.2-1 Severity: wishlist It would be nice to have an option for iodine (client) that would cause the process to add a static route to the DNS server it uses via the default gateway (or maybe a specific IP), e.g.
iodine … -r … my.dns.domain → route via default gw iodine … -r 1.2.3.4 … my.dns.domain → route via 1.2.3.4 The reason is that one usually adds 0/1 and 128/1 routes (or redirects the default route) via the iodined IP, but the DNS server must stay reachable. The iodine client knows best which DNS IP it uses, which is why I think it should provide that option. It would make it trivial to add if-up.d/if-down.d hooks to automate the setup (I would send a patch later). It goes without saying that termination of the iodine process should also remove the static route as well. -- System Information: Debian Release: squeeze/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable'), (500, 'stable'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.30-rc8-686 (SMP w/1 CPU core) Locale: LANG=en_GB, LC_CTYPE=en_GB.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages iodine depends on: ii adduser 3.110 add and remove users and groups ii debconf [debconf-2.0] 1.5.26 Debian configuration management sy ii libc6 2.9-13 GNU C Library: Shared libraries ii makedev 2.3.1-88 creates device files in /dev ii udev 0.141-1 /dev/ and hotplug management daemo ii zlib1g 1:1.2.3.3.dfsg-13 compression library - runtime iodine recommends no packages.
