SimpleDNS
A lightweight yet useful proxy DNS server designed to cope with complicated Internet environment in China, inspired by ChinaDNS , dnsmasq-chinadns and fqdns, powered by Python Twisted.
Requirement
- Python 3.4
- Twisted
- Tornado for using Tornado IOLoop(optional)
Install
Linux/Mac OS X:
# Clone this project $ sudo python setup.py install
Usage
Run sudo simpledns
on your local machine. Then set your DNS server to 127.0.0.1.
$ dig www.twitter.com +short @127.0.0.1 twitter.com. 199.59.149.230 199.59.148.10 199.59.150.7 199.59.150.39
Note that the default cache lifetime depends on the ttl of DNS answer. You may want to set a larger ttl using --min-ttl to extend the cache lifetime.

Configuration
Configuration file is at /usr/local/etc/simpledns/dispatch.conf.
Dispatch conf file uses the same rule as in Dnsmasq. 'Address' and 'Server' rules are supported.
address=/example1.com/1.1.1.1 server=/example2.com/1.1.1.2
Default dispatch conf file is from dnsmasq-china-list.
Fake ip list file is at /usr/local/ect/simpledns/iplist/txt. The source is ChinaDNS.
TODO
- Config file support
- EDNS support
- Negative caching
