[ubuntu-za] DNS benchmark

[Charl Wentzel]

Here's a useful utility for the net admins out there...

Python utility that compares DSN servers from your browser history and
advises best DNS server to use:
 http://code.google.com/p/namebench/

Download and extract the python source and run "./namebench.py" from the
extracted directory. That simple!

If you want a GUI install "python-tk" package then run. (
 - Generate report in web browser with nice charts

Or run with "-x" parameter to force command line.
 - More powerful feature with text output

Windows and Mac versions available too.

VERY NICE!
