+Work is ongoing to move this into the "new standard" ITS at https://github.com/PDP-10/its. Stay tuned, see [[https://github.com/PDP-10/its/pull/2073|the Github pull request]] for more info.

 **Crucial:** have your firewall intercept all DNS queries and send to local DNS server, otherwise all traffic goes to root server (configured at ROOHST) which might not even allow it. See $nameserver parameter (3rd arg) of [[http://victor.se/bjorn/its/raspi-ksits-iptables.txt|my iptables script]].

+Or, as suggested below, change the server address to 1.1.1.1 (Cloudflare) or 8.8.8.8 (Google).

 Recompile programs which use SYSNET;RESOLV to instead use VICTOR;RESOLV (or where you choose to put it).

In particular COMSAT (the mail server program) seems not to use the resolver - this makes sense since it sends all mail to the local "real" mail server (see [[mail-setup|my mail setup]]).

 The "main domain list" is set after MAKD10 to ITS.OS.ORG (instead of AI.MIT.EDU), both rather useless (but doesn't matter since RESOLV has its own search list).
