_I haven't ever gotten dnssec-trigger to work, but today based on IRC
discussion, I finally understood what was wrong._
It's very simple.
```
# Check for updates to the repos & install dnssec-trigger and unbound
sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install unbound dnssec-trigger
```
And this is the farthest I have gotten before. But today at IRC there
was talk on DNS proxies which Ubuntu and Fedora use, Ubuntu uses dnsmasq
2023-02-22 19:28:38 +01:00
and Fedora unbound. That made me _read the fine manual_ of
NetworkManager.conf...
```man
dns
Set the DNS (resolv.conf) processing mode.
default: The default if the key is not specified. NetworkManager
will update resolv.conf to reflect the nameservers provided by
currently active connections.
dnsmasq: NetworkManager will run dnsmasq as a local caching
nameserver, using a "split DNS" configuration if you are connected
to a VPN, and then update resolv.conf to point to the local
nameserver.
unbound: NetworkManager will talk to unbound and dnssec-triggerd,
providing a "split DNS" configuration with DNSSEC support. The
/etc/resolv.conf will be managed by dnssec-trigger daemon.
none: NetworkManager will not modify resolv.conf.
```
And there is the solution, unbound. The third line of NetworkManager.conf
is usually `dns=dnsmasq`, just change it to `dns=unbound` or add the line
if it doesn't exist and restart networkmanager with `sudo systemctl restart NetworkManager.service` and your dnssec-trigger should now work.
And when you `sudo reboot` you should see new dnssec-trigger tray icon in
your tray bar or whatever it was called as.

_Edit_: Arch users do remember do `systemctl enable dnssec-triggerd` and
`systemctl enable unbound`.
