[Dnsmasq-discuss] URIBL_BLOCKED with dnsmasq and server options

Hello everybody,

I understand dnsmasq is an forwarding dns server and I was wondering if 
there is a way to configure it to do dns lookups using it own IP 
external address instead of the server forwarders, maybe just for URIBL 
lookups ...

dns-forward-max=256
server=208.67.222.222
server=208.67.220.220

What are other dnsmasq users doing to get working URIBL and not use a 
forwarder, do you run a caching DNS on the same server and use 
server=localhost?

Looking for advice and options,

Kind regards,

Jelle de Jong
