      I would  really like to enter also hostnames (not only fixed ip addresses).
      It would be very helpful for larger websites (google, microsoft update, symantec live update etc.) with a bunch of ip's (and also for dynamic addresses like dyndns hostnames).

        Afaik there is some work being done on this in 2.0
        However this is not unproblematic, since most "big" hostnames resolve to multiple IPs and you need some way to keep track of changes.

        We do what we must, because we can.
