Hi,

I only wanted to mention that the DNS entry of rsync.gentoo.org has 
become so lengthy meanwhile that the clients need to do a fallback on 
DNS by TCP.

Which not necessarily works with cheap equipment.

Hi,

most of routers have also a DNS proxy function; often it is implemented 
as UDP only service. You can put an external nameserver of your choice 
at the end of /etc/resolv.conf. E.g.:

nameserver 192.168.1.1
nameserver 195.185.185.195

With firewalls and routers with firewall function the service (domain) 
53/tcp should be allowed from/to an external nameserver.

Kind regards
k.j.
