Open DNS is specifically blocking tor.bravesoftware.com, screwing up my Brave Browser Private Windows with TOR. The workaround is to temporarily switch to google as my forwarder, and let Brave Browser download the required Tor daemon, then switch back. So, next time I need a new daemon, I thought of just hard coding tor.bravesoftware.com into /etc/hosts, but I do not have such a critter in my system Q1. that on purpose? Did Fedroa drop /etc/hosts? Q2. If I created my own hosts, would it be read first or after named? Q3. Is there a way to hard code tor.bravesoftware.com into named? Many thanks, -T

I can see why Open DNS would block tor.bravesoftware.com as it would be a method of bypassing the porn blocks. When I am on Tor looking up things that are nobody else's business, I reply on the onion to keep reverse logging from getting back to me. _______________________________________________ users mailing list -- users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe send an email to users-leave@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Fedora Code of Conduct: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Do not reply to spam, report it: https://pagure.io/fedora-infrastructure/new_issue
