Hello Low End Talk,
I am a long time lurker on this board and thought I would share a new system we have deployed. I know this board is very particular about fly by night operations (which I appreciate) and since our domain is newly registered, I would like to share the fact that we are the oldest ISP in the state of Hawaii (lava.net) as well as long term VoIP provider. The reason I am posting to this forum is that I know there are large number of techies who come here who can provide feedback for us. (we are not a VPS or a LEB provider)
We have released a DNS filtering (blacklist / whitelist) service called AlohaDNS . We are offering the service for free until April 2013, as we complete the front end interface and complete the reporting. The back end of the system is fully operational and is taking a good amount of traffic at this time, the front end interface is very raw, but does control the filters properly. We are allowing up to 1000 item blacklist/whitelist and wildcards are allowed (i.e. *.cn blocks china). You will receive in a nightly report of your traffic and blocked domains. The system can be operated in 2 modes: blacklist mode, which only blocks sites on your list, and whitelist mode, which only allows access to sites on your list.
I would like to invite you guys to use the service and let me know any feedback you have.
Thanks
