My Own DNS

I’ve been meaning to do this for ages now and today I found the time to do it right. I installed dnsmasq on a spare Raspberry Pi to do three things: Provide nice name resolution on my servers (i.e. *foo*.peterkuehne.com) Log all DNS queries (for stats, etc, not for actual monitoring) Cache DNS lookups and make browsing a few milliseconds faster As far as I can see right now, this all works great.
