U mean Faster ??

yes, we can, as OpenDNS will have a Large cache compair with ISP DNS, therefore we can surf faster !!

And i use it... many other of this forum use it too !!

@freebird, its being managed well.. No problems so far (using since about a year). People say it can be target for a cache poisoning attack, but then, its monitored very well, and is user driven, so no issues so far. In other words, do try it out

@kalpik thx.I just switched to opendns in my Debian Sid.I uses dataone adsl so ended up commenting out usepeerdns in the config thing.I tried each time the bsnl dns entries are automagically entered in /etc/resolv.conf.anyway now got opendns,yet to see some changes

Why dont you try this: *www.opendns.com/start/unix.php
Or better still, add opendns servers to your router itself under the DNS section.
