You can use WPAD methods to setup the browsers in bulk with little or
no
user knowledge. They only need to set the browser to the "auto-detect"
setting if it's not already defaulting to that.
If you want to get really tricky you can start intercepting DNS going
to
servers outside your networks and pointing them at a recursive resolver
under your own control. The success of this depends on whether the
client
software is doing DNSSEC or other security measures on their DNS
replies.
i have a local resolver in my main server. how can intercept DNS going
outside and point it to a recursive server under my control?
Firewall NAT. Same as you redirect port 80 to squid, but redirecting port
53 UDP to the internal DNS resolver.
Can i do as below:
eth0= interface to internet
$LAN_IN = interface to lan
$SQUID_SERVER = local DNS resolver
$SQUID_PORT = 3128
iptables -t nat -A PREROUTING -i $LAN_IN -p udp --dport 53 -j DNAT
--to $SQUID_SERVER:$SQUID_PORT
No.
--to $SQUID_SERVER:53
iptables -t nat -A PREROUTING -i eth0 -p udp --dport 53 -j REDIRECT
--to-port 3128
No.
--to-port 53
this will redirect udp port 53 to my local resolver server.
thanks
