## Quickstart
|
|
|
|
This is also done by `../../systemd-resolv.conf-restore.bash` which takes
|
|
into account more circumstances...
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
sudo systemctl enable --now systemd-resolved.service
|
|
sudo ln -rsf /run/systemd/resolve/stub-resolv.conf /etc/resolv.conf
|
|
# After changing configuration
|
|
sudo systemctl restart systemd-resolved
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
...but `../../systemd-resolv.conf-generate.bash` **is better.** Although
|
|
`../../resolv.conf-generate.bash` **is the best** this repository has to
|
|
offer.
|
|
|
|
## Files explained
|
|
|
|
- `00-defaults.conf` - configuration that should be used everywhere.
|
|
Enables DNSSEC (regardless of systemd-resolved not handling it properly),
|
|
enables opportunistic DoT, caching and local DNS servers (because they
|
|
should exist anyway as I don't trust systemd-resolved entirely. Anyway if
|
|
there truly is no local resolver, systemd-resolved will detect that and act accordingly.)
|
|
- To rephrase, this is to be used together with other files, especially
|
|
some of those beginning with `10-dot-`.
|
|
- `05-do53-dna-moi.conf` - DNS servers used by DNA and Moi (who is on DNA's
|
|
network and owned by them)
|
|
- `05-do53-elisa.conf` - DNS servers used by Elisa and apparently their
|
|
Saunalahti still exists here as well.
|
|
- `10-dot-*.conf` - configuration to use the DNS provider with DNS-over-TLS.
|
|
At least one of these should be used in addition to `00-defaults.conf`
|
|
- `98-local-resolver.conf` attempts to configure localhost resolver and
|
|
disables unnecessary features for that scenario. The number 10 takes
|
|
priority over 00 and 05 so if a DNSOverTLS=true is uncommented, it will
|
|
also apply to the former ones that are unlikely to support it. When
|
|
numbering the files, I didn't think I would be adding the plaintext DNS
|
|
servers that I am unlikely to use whenever Unbound is available (and I
|
|
currently have only one system that has systemd-resolved while not having
|
|
Unbound and it seems to prefer DoT over my router anyway).
|
|
- `99-lan-resolver.conf.sample` when renamed would allow enabling resolvers on
|
|
LAN assuming they are trusted. Note that if used together with
|
|
`98-local-resolver.conf`, DNSSEC would be disabled.
|
|
- `README.md` - you are reading it right now.
|
|
|
|
## General commentary
|
|
|
|
- DNSOverTLS became supported in systemd v239, strict mode (true) in
|
|
v243 (big improvements in v244).
|
|
- TODO: find out when SNI became supported, I have just spotted it in the
|
|
fine manual in 2020-06-??.
|
|
- Domains has to be `.~` for them to override DHCP. See https://www.internetsociety.org/blog/2018/12/dns-privacy-in-linux-systemd
|
|
without which I wouldn't have got this right.
|
|
- DNSSEC may not work if the system is down for a long time and not updated.
|
|
Thus `allow-downgrade` may be better for non-tech people, even with the
|
|
potential downgrade attack. There are also captive portals, affecting
|
|
`DNSOverTLS`. Both take `true` or `false` or their own special option,
|
|
for DNSSEC the `allow-downgrade`, for DNSOverTLS `opportunistic`.
|
|
- Then again when was any system that outdated to not have working DNSSEC?
|
|
- TODO: return to this configuration should that actually happen?
|
|
- I am actually running Unbound simultaneously with `resolv.conf` pointing
|
|
to both with `options rotate edns0 trust-ad` which might workaround that
|
|
potential issue.
|
|
- DNS server priority is the one they are specified in. The first working one
|
|
will be used when it won't work anymore and then the next is used as long
|
|
as it works and then it's back to the beginning.
