I've been working on a small proof of concept code, that is basically a local namecoin DNS server. What it dose is relay all your DNS queries to your regular DNS server and for the .bit queries it makes a "fake" answer. It gets this "fake" answer from namecoind trough json interface.
This gives you a no setup, easy to use way of browsing .bit domains, witch works on all your applications and browsers.
As i sad it's a proof of concept and very buggy but it works (more or less)
Is there any interest in this little project?? I don't have much time for it which makes development go slow so a little help would be nice.

Re: NameCoin ReRoute (Java DNS server)
sounds interesting. Would it also be possible to query a namecoin dns server for .bit domains? I think not everybody wants to run a namecoin client.Orwell wrote:I've been working on a small proof of concept code, that is basically a local namecoin DNS server.

Re: NameCoin ReRoute (Java DNS server)
That is a good idea And yes it's possible. The buggy'nes in the software is all related to querying
namecoind, so this would make it more usable as well. If i get time I'll implement it as an option..

Re: NameCoin ReRoute (Java DNS server)
It's an interesting solution indeed (a bit like this one : https://dot-bit.org/forum/viewtopic.php?f=9&t=345. I may continue this work one day, depending on priorities :p).
All solution that is easy to use for end users is welcome .
