blocking Popups with Bind

[Joe Kattner]

No, I still don't think this is a good solution. Barry suggested ad blocking
software. Now that it's only two clients it should be relatively painless to
install blocking software. Much easier, and you won't have problems later,
when you start wondering why a lot of things don't resolve properly.
Remember, by providing false DNS data you are not just blocking popups, but
all name resolution for those domains regardless of service.

If you still want to stop them by introducing bogus data into your DNS
server yes, it will work the same way that the single entry you first posted
will stop resolution for www.doubleclick.com.

hehe thx for that !!!
ok . a proxy is much better sure
but since i am use one Route for only 2 Clients i would say
this is the most best solution or ?

> for i in `cat url.list`; do printf "zone \"$i\" {\n\ttype master;\n\tfile
> \"$i.db\";\n};\n"; done

i have an file hosts with Urls like:

ad.ca.doubleclick.net
ad.de.doubleclick.net
ad.dk.doubleclick.net
ad.doubleclick.net
ad.es.doubleclick.net
ad.fr.doubleclick.net
ad.it.doubleclick.net
ad.jp.doubleclick.net
ad.kr.doubleclick.net
    .....

and the named.conf

do you think it works ?
