As of 01-01-2015 this will not work any longer but I'm keeping it around for historical reasons :)

DNS Ethereum

DNSEth is a DNS server prototype that uses Ethereum as backend.

It will only ever support A records and has no recursion so make sure you have a secondary DNS server setup in case you want to give this a go.

How to register a name

  • Boot Ethereal
  • Send a transaction to 1b6a704f1c12e98b4b355d385e8eeaa7e7b237e2
  • Fill in a 0 and two strings, domain (without the .eth extension) and ip, as arguments in the data field.

For instance:

0
"ethereum"
"62.251.77.75"

How to use the DNS

Setup 94.242.229.217 as DNS server and use 8.8.8.8 as secondary.

With this setup you can for instance go to http://maran.eth/ and if all is well it should work as expected.
