Note that this server **does not** in any way circumvent Netflix's block
against these IPv6 address ranges; all it does is force Netflix to use the IPv4
Internet.

## Installation

Clone this repository into `/opt/fix-netflix-dns`. (You can clone as any user, but the server must be run as root in order to bind to port 53.)

Configure your existing DNS server/forwarder to listen on port 10053, and restart it.

Run the following commands to install the systemd service:

cd /etc/systemd/system
ln -s /opt/fix-netflix-dns/fix-netflix-dns.service
systemctl enable fix-netflix-dns.service
systemctl start fix-netflix-dns.service
