http://thekelleys.org.uk/dnsmasq/doc.html I couldn't remember last night, but here it is. Apparently most of the Linux-based firewalls use this package. Also of note is that "from version 0.95 the cache honours time-to-live information and removes old records as they expire." Also, to save you some reading: "Supported platforms include Linux (with glibc and uclibc), *BSD and Mac OS X. Dnsmasq is included in at least the following Linux distributions: Gentoo, Debian, Slackware, Suse, Smoothwall, IP-Cop, floppyfw, Firebox, LEAF, Freesco, CoyoteLinux and Clarkconnect. It is also available as a FreeBSD port and is used in Linksys wireless routers." bill_c uses m0n0wall, but it is based on freeBSD and I don't know what it uses. Apparently it too uses dnsmasq http://m0n0.ch/wall/docbook/intro-features.html So our group should be pretty much covered. Brian Kelsay
