		<description>Great programme thanks. 

I&#039;m running Ubuntu 9.04. Now I&#039;ve permanently installed it with &#039;sudo python setup.py install&#039; how am I supposed to run it?

I can still start it by going to the namebench folder and typing &#039;./namebench.py&#039; but I don&#039;t see any simpler alternative and I can&#039;t see anything in the Ubuntu menu.

Have I missed something?</description>

		<description>@Randy3011: &lt;strong&gt;Changing DNS server settings on Ubuntu&lt;/strong&gt;

   1. In the System menu, click Preferences, then click Network Connections.
   2. Select the connection for which you want to configure the DNS. 
          * To change the settings for an Ethernet connection, select the Wired tab, then select your network interface in the list. It is usually called eth0.
          * To change the settings for a wireless connection, select the Wireless tab, then select the appropriate wireless network.
   3. Click Edit, and in the window that appears, select the IPv4 Settings tab.
   4. If the selected method is Automatic (DHCP), open the dropdown and select Automatic (DHCP) addresses only instead. If the method is set to something else, do not change it.
   5. In the DNS servers field, enter the wanted IP addresses, separated by a space eg: 8.8.8.8  8.8.4.4
   6. Click Apply to save the change. If you are prompted for a password or confirmation, type the password or provide confirmation.
   7. Test that your setup is working correctly; sudo traceroute -n -w 2 -q 2 -m 30 &lt;em&gt;your_new_DNS&lt;/em&gt;
   8. Repeat the procedure for additional network connections you want to change.</description>

		<description>I tried this and found a DNS server I believe is faster by 17%. How do I make the change? Using Ubuntu 9.10.
