Or you can use dnscrypt-proxy see here https://github.com/jedisct1/dnscrypt-proxy It is BSD licensed and encrypts DNS requests. I have set it on an OpenBSD router and it works well. On Sun, Mar 12, 2017 at 12:18 AM, Walter Dnes wrote: > Starting a separate topic, rather

Re: [gentoo-user] How many IP addresses may a NIC obtain?

Re: [gentoo-user] Virtualbox oddities...

You need to mount the 'guest-additions-iso' in your VM. If you go to to the device drop down you should see that option there. Then run the Linux script in the CD, then reboot. You should get full screen. On Wed, Jan 18, 2017 at 12:12 PM, wrote: > Hi, > > I am relatively
