Hello, Anyone using OpenDNS? If so, when the client pops up in the task bar is there something special you have to do to get it to speak? It is not for me. I've got it installed and got the dns servers set, but am not noticing any reduction. Is there another step? Thanks. Dave.
Hi, Reduction in what? The client only ties in the machine to the account, so the relevant parental blocking and statistics can be set up. I never really notice any spead increase when using OpenDNS, it probably is so if you use a badly configured or slow nameserver, but here we use a local resolver anyway, and it is just as fast as using OpenDNS. Thanks. Andrew. -----Original Message----- From: blind-sysadmins-bounces@lists.hodgsonfamily.org [mailto:blind-sysadmins-bounces@lists.hodgsonfamily.org] On Behalf Of David Mehler Sent: 19 April 2011 18:11 To: blind-sysadmins Subject: [Blind-sysadmins] users of OpenDNS?

Hi, Thanks. Where do I set up the parental blocking and other stats? I checked the client. Thanks. Dave. On 4/19/11, Andrew Hodgson <andrew@hodgsonfamily.org> wrote:
