          @jimbohello at this point every issue we have with v23 seems to come back to some unbound DNS issue. You might check the other threads about getting DNS with TLS working.

            disable dns over TLS in the dns resolver

            As Clyosoft indicates there are a few threads about DNS not working. Disabling DNSSEC while forwarding seems to be required now (and reportedly all along was known to sometimes cause failures when forwarding), but several have said they also need to disable DNS over TLS. See for instance:

            https://forum.netgate.com/topic/178413/major-dns-bug-23-01-with-quad9-on-ssl/

            Pre-2.7.2/23.09: Only install packages for your version, or risk breaking it. Select your branch in System/Update/Update Settings.
            When upgrading, allow 10-15 minutes to restart, or more depending on packages and device speed.

                i don't know if this help, but i did some testing,

                if i remove in tab - /system/general
                use remote dns serveur , ignore local dns

                the problem is solve using DNS OVER TLS

                when i put back "use local dns, ignore remote dns " problem occur

                  This setting affects how pfSense itself does DNS. So again it sounds like DNS is not working on your router, for some reason.
                  https://docs.netgate.com/pfsense/en/latest/config/general.html#dns-resolution-behavior

                  Is the DNS Resolver service running? If you try to start it, or restart it, are there errors shown in the system log or DNS Resolver log? Test DNS using Diagnostics/DNS Lookup.

                    Listen my friend , yesterday before my upgrade 23.01 my setup was the same for several years

                    Never had ans issue

                    23.01 is the issue in DoT
                    I have zero problem on dns resolution for my local lan client.
                    The problem is only in alias fetching xxxx.dyndns.org ip

                    Same issue on all my appliance

                    LOG/ dns resolver /. FAILED TO RESOLVE HOST

                    If i go back to standard dns(53). Work like luky charm. :)

                    It exacly this problem

                    https://forum.netgate.com/topic/178413/major-dns-bug-23-01-with-quad9-on-ssl

                    quad9, google, opendns, cloudflare or whatever is issue

                    All my appliance 23.01 are doing this issue
                    All my appliance 22.05 are doing good

                    They have the same setup everywhere.

                      WHY IS PFSENSE ITSELF TRY TO RESOLVE
                      vrac-nicolas.dyndns.org.jimbohello.arpa
                      when it suppose to be vrac-nicolas.dyndns.org

                      pfsense is hading the domain part of itself ! no wonder why it can't resolve

                        Hmm, I only expect to see that if it has already failed to resolve the fqdn without the domain appended.

                          When following DoT procedure base on netgate.
                          All alliases having dynamic name to resolve, get an response from dnsfilter « failed to resolve host - will retry again later ». Some of them does resolve bost most part failed completly ans then, at a point failed all.

                          When chanching aliases to url ip table , no problem occur.

                          If i remove all DoT everything work as expected

                          Note : i have arround 140 dynamic name to resolve.

                          Hope help

                          Behavior apper on sg-3100, sg-8200 pro max. And all other device

                          Version 22.05 not affected
                          Version 23.01 affected

                          Thank’s

                          Hope helps
