    Try CoreDNS as a forwarding proxy. it's trivial to setup, just make sure you set some ACLs to only respond to your IP blocks. Source: about 1 year ago

  • How to put DNS queries under a encrypted secure tunnel
    I’ve rather fallen out of love with pi-hole so was looking at CoreDNS but DNSCrypt looks great. Source: over 1 year ago
  • Thoughts on systemd-resolved vs. dnsmasq?
    It should be noted that this isn't unique to systemd-resolved, e.g. CoreDNS's cache will serve cached/stale denials as well. Source: over 1 year ago
