ChinaDNS-Python

Fix weird things with DNS in China.

ChinaDNS-C is more advanced and well maintained. Please use it instead.

Actually, I'm not working on the Python version anymore. New maintainers are welcome. Just send several pull requests and let me know. You can begin with some features that have already been implemented in ChinaDNS-C.

Usage

Run sudo chinadns on your local machine. ChinaDNS creates a DNS server at 127.0.0.1:53.

Set your DNS to 127.0.0.1 and you're done.
