They are the best name servers for simple "set and forget" recursive
8
-There are a lot of legitimate objections to the ICANN name servers. I am
9
-not happy that they blocked the existence of the <tt>.xxx</tt> top-level
10
-domain. I also feel that they are too US-centric. We're commenting this
11

It is possible, however, to change the root DNS servers used by setting the
18
ipv4_bind_addresses = "localhost"
19
chroot_dir = "/etc/maradns"
20
recursive_acl = "localhost"
21
-ipv4_alias["icann-a"] = "198.41.0.4,"
22
+ipv4_alias["icann-a"] = "198.41.0.4"
23
ipv4_alias["icann-b"] = "192.228.79.201"
24
ipv4_alias["icann-c"] = "192.33.4.12"
25
ipv4_alias["icann-d"] = "128.8.10.90"
29
Replace 192.168.0.1 with the IP of the machine running the recursive MaraDNS;
30
-replace 192.168.0.0/24 (This means "anything which begins with "192.168.0")
31
+replace 192.168.0.0/24 (This means "anything that begins with 192.168.0")
32
with the IP range allowed to access the recursive DNS server.
