'''OpenNIC''' is an [[w:Alternative DNS root|alternate DNS root]]. Since January 2011, the [[VTLUUG]] has operated a tier 2 OpenNIC server on [[miltonInfrastructure:Lordnikon|lordnikon]].
== Simple configuration ==
The easiest way to set up OpenNIC is to edit resolv.conf and add replace your existing DNS servers with some of OpenNIC's DNS servers to the list. You should add at least two in case one of them goes down. I personally use three: <code>128.173.89.246</code>, <code>69.164.208.50</code>, and <code>64.0.55.201</code>.
== Advanced configuration ==
=== Dnsmasq ===
Add these lines to your [[w:Dnsmasq|Dnsmasq]] configuration file:
