The dnsfunnel-translate program

dnsfunnel-translate translates a file in resolv.conf format to a file in dnsfunneld format.

Interface

     dnsfunnel-translate [ -i inputfile ] [ -o outputfile ] [ -x ignoredip ]

• dnsfunnel-translate opens inputfile and parses it. It reads and processes lines beginning with nameserver followed by an IP address (v4 or v6). It ignores other lines.
• It writes the IP addresses, without the nameserver keyword, to outputfile, one per line.
• If a nameserver address is ignoredip, it does not get printed to outputfile
• dnsfunnel-translate exits 0 when it has finished processing inputfile.

Exit codes

• 0: success
• 1: no suitable IP found in the input file
• 100: wrong usage
• 111: system call failed

Options

• -i inputfile : process inputfile. Default is /etc/resolv.conf.
• -o outputfile : write the result to outputfile. Default is /run/dnsfunnel/root/caches.
• -x ignoredip : ignore the ignoredip IPv4 address if it shows up as a nameserver in inputfile. Default is 127.0.0.1. The point of this option is to avoid copying to outputfile the IPv4 address that the dnsfunneld daemon will be bound to.
