Where is the information on how to use the DNS Filter?

[TFWol]

I can't find information about the DNS Filter.
Surprisingly, the documentation page didn't really tell me anything.

I opened an Issue for that btw

The usage information is available in the Sandboxie-Plus interface.

Sandboxie/SandboxiePlus/SandMan/Forms/OptionsWindow.ui

Line 3773 in 6438d56

<string>With the DNS filter individual domains can be blocked, on a per process basis. Leave the IP column empty to block or enter an ip to redirect.</string>

Note

There is no wildcard support in this setting.

To redirect a domain:

NetworkDnsFilter=www.example.com:127.0.0.1
NetworkDnsFilter=program.exe,www.example.org:127.0.0.1

To block a domain: (Alternatively, you can also redirect it to 0.0.0.0)

NetworkDnsFilter=www.example.com
NetworkDnsFilter=program.exe,www.example.org

Warning

• You may also need to use the Template=BlockDNS template to ensure proper filtering. This way, applications will make DNS queries through the system.
• DNS filtering will not work when a secure DNS is configured within an application.
• DNS filtering will not work when "Proxy DNS when using SOCKS 4/5" or similar setting is configured within an application.
• Third party applications may also cause this filtering to not work.

Thanks. That info is what I was looking for.
