!!UnderConstruction!!
If web browser speed has been reduced by >10% on workstations running web filtering, implementing the following GNC script will install and configure DNSmasq to create a local cache for DNS requests. More information on Groovix NetCustomization can be found on the Groovix NetCustomization page.
Groovix NetCusomization script
apt-get-dontask install dnsmasq
gncget --mod=644 /etc/dhcp3/dhclient.conf
gncget --mod=644 /etc/dnsmasq.conf
/etc/init.d/networking restart
After the install, the following files need to be updated:
diff dhclient.conf.default /etc/dhcp3/dhclient.conf
20c20
< #prepend domain-name-servers 127.0.0.1;
---
> prepend domain-name-servers 127.0.0.1;
diff dnsmasq.conf.default /etc/dnsmasq.conf
90c90
< #listen-address=
---
> listen-address=127.0.0.1
