Does anyone know if GNU has a source tar ball for a domain name
server?
I'd like to run my own DNS in my network to monitor trafic and website
being browsed in my network. I'd like to modify the DNS so that if
any web site that has content that I think is inappropriate for my
kids that I can block it and redirect them to a warning page.

TIA.
B.

Bind 9 is available under the BSD license.

If open source BSD license is not sufficient for your purposes and
it must be GPL, then see

I guess I should have stated that the server I want to use as the new
dns is a MAC running MAC OS X 10.4

I wouldn't think that Bind 9 would have any trouble compiling on OS X.

If I'm not mistaken, BIND is included with the normal OS X
distribution.

Yes I believe it is... but I'd like to modify bind so that I can keep
an eye on
internet sites being visited.. Net Nanny Stuff...

Why do you need to modify it to do that? Just turn on the query logging
option and scan the logs.

Ahh nice... I'll give that a shot.
Do you think I should be asking these questions some where else?

comp.protocols.dns.bind is the group for BIND questions.

Or, if you think the issues are Mac-specific, comp.sys.mac.apps (but
don't spell it "MAC" or you'll get flamed!).
