/dns anynameofserver

* Dns resolved name to ip

how i can create fake dns so that real ips secure??

you need to pick different subject names when you create new threads .. currently you have 2 with the exact same subject and neither apply to the topic of the thread.

Secondly, you can't fake dns for irc servers because clients need real ips to connect to. If you are refering to services or non-client/dedicated hubs then you simply do not create an A record for them so the host doesn't resolve.

Or instead of not creating the record you can always create the record pointing to 127.0.0.1

But as katsklaw said it is impossible to create a fake DNS to keep real IP's secure because by doing so you leav your clients with NO server IP's to connect to.

Personally in my dns ive set services, stats and hub to 127.0.0.1, all my other servers (because theyre used so clients can connect) are set to their correct IP.

And before you suggest having the DNS return a fake IP unless it's an IRC client looking it up, the DNS server has no way to tell what program is looking up the host.

That shouldn't work. IRCd's tend to lookup the IP to a hostname first, and then lookup the hostname again to see if it resolves back to the IP. If these don't match, your IP will still be shown.

Seems you missed the point:

I was talking about how to secure hostnames such as services.domain and hub.domain so nobody could use the hostname to retrieve the IP. Not securing reverse lookups.

But now i think about the question i wonder if thats what he meant in the first place. But how the question was asked, including example, suggests he was refering to server names.
