Want to throw in blocky (https://github.com/0xERR0R/blocky). Supports modern protocols and easy to configure in one file. Migrated to this from pi-hole and never looked back.
Why forward requests to a DNS server like 1.1.1.1 at all? I used to use stuff like pi-hole/dnsmasq, but now I'm using unbound on my opnsense router which supports using blocklists and custom overrides (as well as automatic for DHCP clients). I found the default blocklists in pi-hole broke a few things but not had any problems with the lists I'm using now.
I run coredns with a blocklist, the config is like 4 lines.
What am I missing by not using AdGuard, PiHole and similar?
My journey of DNS, including self-hosting with Pi-hole and AdGuard Home, using paid services like NextDNS and AdGuard DNS, and public privacy-respecting resolvers.
I also want to selfhost variosu servers like dns, email(just to send email to myself).....ldap, dhcp etc. Where do I get started with? I know linux command line.
Aparently signing up for a subscription service now qualifies as "self-hosting" 8-)
I've been running bind9 on a computer under my desk for about 20 years.
The only subdscription required is an ISP contract that includes static IP.
Maybe I'll get a netflix acct (never had one), and "self-host" some videos...
> By using multiple different resolvers, operated by different companies, no single one gets the whole picture.
I’d say exact opposite. Now you’re sharing data with multiple parties and each is potentially getting enough data to extrapolate the whole picture
Does anyone know of a good authoritative DNS server that supports Dynamic DNS updates? Preferably exclusively standardized stuff. I currently run CoreDNS on my network, but dynamic registration isn't supported and might never be.
>I wanted to be able to access it with a static IP, and I don’t feel like calling my ISP to get one.
Not "feeling like" calling your ISP to get a static IP, but also wanting to self-host?
I recently switched from Pi-Hole to AdGuard Home, it was pretty straightforward to migrate my configuration and so far it's working great. I've actually got two servers running AGH + unbound (authoritative) so my internet keeps working if one setup breaks/reboots.
Fun project.
But I would just use https://pi-hole.net/
this seems like a massively overcomplicated exercise.
dns-blocking is evil, no matter who does it.
stop lying to yourself and install contentblocker on your devices
DNS resolver, which it is deeply silly to not include in the title.
