We talk about openDNS from Italy when we started to feel a strong smell of censorship. Not that these practices had never been implemented by our government (see the long list of sites on gambling that have been banned), but the straw that broke the camel's back was definitely the shutdown of The Pirate Bay , one of the largest BitTorrent trackers in the world.

Those of TPB did talk about him far and wide thanks to their rebellion and protest against the policies of 'country locked' imposed by certain countries that absolutely personal-opinion-have simply fueled the curiosity of people against these channels, because in fact they are resources that have something really interesting and facilitate inter alia, the disclosure of a large amount of free material, such as Linux distributions.

OpenDNS makes its way at the right time with a DNS service of high quality, competitive, because based on generosity, cooperation, and the 'independence from providers, unfortunately, subject to government influence.

In addition to improving immune to the effects of the coutry lock is definitely superior service and favorable than that provided by common ISP, since the offer has more than reliability, many additional services custom designed for businesses, schools, but also common for home networks. Personally I would be willing to pay even if that was not totally free.
To access these services is only necessary registration, website: free, immediate and open to all, while only service to use the Domain Name System is sufficient to indicate the connection properties in the DNS addresses 208.67.222.222 and 208.67.220.220, without no inscription.

Reasons for use openDNS

As I said, using these DNS 'free' you can circumvent the censorship just because the service is free from any interest to the detriment of the highest user satisfaction.
But let's start talking about security and content filtering: the good one.
The great advantage of this solution is the protection against phishing and fraud for surfers, but you can choose between 6 different levels of filtering for your home or corporate network.
Precise categories and blocks are managed by the community of users of the service (only a few million) through polls and vote on domain names and addresses whose nature is still uncertain. If a valid e escaped content filtering, in addition to report it immediately, you can lock in your network.

here are six possibilities:

• high (block sites in categories: phishing, video sharing, entertainment, social networking, pornography, warez, illegal)
• (grabbing categories: phishing, pornography, warez, illegal)
• Low (protects against phishing and block pornography)
• minimal (protects against phishing) * recommended mode
• none (no locks, no security)
• Custom (you can select the categories you want to block)

With OpenDNS browsing is faster because the servers are reserved for large amounts of memory for caching address : not having to query other DNS servers for each request received, reduces greatly the response time. More requests are always redirected to the server physically closest to you.

Another 'feature' is interesting Typo Correction feature when typing a wrong URL into your browser (eg writing http://wikipedia.ogr ) recognizes and corrects spelling error point to the correct domain.

If you are users of services like TinyUrl , know that here you can use the same solution, called Shortcut: In fact into your control panel (or dashboard) you will be able to set a few words as shortcuts to address more complex and difficult to store (eg . "mail" -> http://mail.google.com/mail).

For managers of small and medium networks, is a beautiful facility service statistics , which helps to analyze the amount of requests made by users by explanatory charts or tables with the ability to export all data to CSV (fields separated comma) or printable. The data collected are as follows:

1. Total DNS requests
2. Total Unique Domains
3. Total Unique IPs (useful for larger networks)
4. Requested Domains
5. Blocked domains Requested
6. Request Types (A, MX, PTR)

You can see the definitions to distinguish the nature of the requests submitted by your users during the analysis. Plus anytime you can reset all data and start over.

On page http://system.opendns.com (or http://208.67.219.60/ if you have problems of resolution) is always a page server monitoring, ofwhich five are living in America and one in London. The page includes the current status of servers, one of the last 30 days, some statistics on trends and the amount of DNS requests answered per day: very impressive at the time, both in numbers and in the absence of negative reports.

Why all this? What do we gain?

openDNS earns giving an error page containing relevant advertising every time you type an invalid address in your browser. When you offer and the service is very good and reliable you can also earn so little, for the happiness of all.

To use the service, I refer you to the instructions on the official page. You can also configure your router to automatically distribute the OpenDNS service via DHCP.

In the last hours The Pirate Bay has been release from seizure :-)

If you are having problems with the cancellation, alteration or moving files Excel files on your Windows server, typically with errors like this:

The file can not be deleted: It Is Being Used by Another person or program

and maybe the system is installed Viruscan McAfee Enterprise 8.0i with patch 16 (or 15 + HotFix 311933) does not know where to turn and your users want in the meantime hang from a pole may be interested in this Knowledge Base article that describes the problem on the same version and offers both a workaround that a decisive patch , a fix of the hotfix.

After installing the patch, reboot the server and the problem should be solved.

If for any reason at the moment you can update your Viruscan, McAfee recommends that you disable Opportunistic file locking , which allows the first client to lock a file in order to have exclusive access to a resource, to avoid loss of data if the same an application is modified by other concurrent clients.

Want to know how many applications and processes which are connected to the network without your knowledge?

the command for you is netstat -ano . I trust that after the laughs do not hardly remember it and you will certainly treasure :-).

Anus as the set of properties that show the connections or listening (-a), on which ports and to / from which IP addresses (-n), the Process ID of the programs that have initialized these connections (-o) .

It only remains to translate the PID in the name of the process to do just use the command:
tasklist /FI “PID eq [PID di netstat]“
Conversely, if you want to know the PID for example Firefox, you use:
tasklist /FI “IMAGENAME eq firefox.exe”

A bit cumbersome but better than nothing, especially when you can not install utilities much more comfortable, complete and immediate as CurrPorts .

If you think you have found any suspected connection, you can check the site constantly updated nmap in the List of Well-Known Ports
