Full credit to bobybee's DNSMagic, this is simply a Java port (and I finished first big_smile ). DNSauce (and DNSMagic) download host entries from a database into your hosts file, allowing the creation of completely free, fake domains that only their users can see. This may seem easy, but the I/O for the hosts file is actually incredibly tricky (AUGH!)

The database is open for everyone to see:
host: sql.thegt.org
user: thegtorg_dnsauce
password: SaucyPie2000
database: thegtorg_dnsauce
You only have SELECT permission, so this is fine.

You can download the finished product here:
Build: here.
Source: here.

Again, full credit to bobbybee, this is just a Java port. Also, I finished first. Java is considerably more suitable for this project since it is cross-platform and has things called Classes which are great for specifying types of things, such as DNS entries.

I'll also probably make a domain registration page if I gather up the energy (although probably not 'till after Halloween. Yum.)

Does it make sure the domains it's downloading aren't real domains from other DNS servers?

No, that will be added to the domain registration code.

I hope bobby gave you prior permission to do this. I also dont think bragging that you finished first is going to help.

I hope you use at least secure connection?

As in SSL?

I agree. Though quite honestly, I probably wasn't gonna finish anyway. There is one thing I ask: I'd like to hose the DB on my own server.

K, just post the info, I can change it in about 5 seconds.
