So both of these rules do the same thing, which is intercept and
redirect DNS requests, to stop people using their own and more
importantly bloody OpenDNS. I'm just wondering if anyone has any
opinions on which is better, cleaner etc or is it just a matter of
preferred style.

iptables -t nat -I PREROUTING -p udp -s 192.168.1.0/24 -d !
192.168.1.0/24 --dport 53 -j DNAT --to 192.168.1.1
iptables -t nat -A PREROUTING -p udp -i br0 --dport 53 -j DNAT --to 192.168.1.1
