Problem with DNS over TLS

pietsnot56 · Jan 20, 2023, 5:42 PM

hi,

My problem seems to be resolved:

I saw in the youtube video this custom settings:

"forward-zone:
name:"."
forward-ssl-upstream: yes
forward-addr: 1.1.1.1@853
forward-addr: 1.0.0.1@853"

By adding this in the service and got this result with 1.1.1.1/help

"Debug Information
Connected to 1.1.1.1 Yes
Using DNS over HTTPS (DoH) No
Using DNS over TLS (DoT) Yes
Using DNS over WARP No
AS Name Cloudflare
AS Number 13335
Cloudflare Data Center BRU

1.0.0.1 Yes
2606:4700:4700::1111 No
2606:4700:4700::1001 No"

Browsing on internet is ok now!

thanks for your assistance.

That is old - you no longer need to do that, just need to click the little button. That says forward using tls, and put those in your dns via general.

hi johnpoz,

i did the test again without the customs settings and i got the same problems again.
My settings are identical as in those in
https://docs.netgate.com/pfsense/en/latest/recipes/dns-over-tls.html#configuring-dns-over-tls

Could there be something else wrong?

johnpoz · Jan 20, 2023, 9:52 PM

@pietsnot56 not sure what you could be doing.. Click Click and using dot to 1.1.1.1

Even did a sniff on wan to validate talking to them over 853

And can see in the resolver status, its only talking to them.

edit: now back to normal resolving - not a fan of dot.

pietsnot56 · Jan 20, 2023, 10:12 PM

I have similar results in status/ dns resolver with my settings.

Those are absolutly identical to your setup.

idem for "1.1.1.1/help"

Could there be a wrong firewall rule that makes the custom settings necessary?

Sure wouldn't think so.. Any firewall rules would apply if using custom or not.. Are you not hitting save somewhere?

You need to set the dns in general, before you set the unbound to forward and dot mode.

pietsnot56 · Jan 21, 2023, 1:20 PM

The dns settings in the “general setup” are ok.
I have tested several times with and without the custom settings. Only “with” allows me to browsing on the internet.
As far i can see all the rest seems working correcty : lookup, 1.1.1.1/ help, ect.
I don’t understand that your settings doesn’t working on my firewall. ???

johnpoz · Jan 21, 2023, 1:22 PM

@pietsnot56 the gui settings do what your doing in custom..

So I again set this back with simple click.. And then look in my unbound.conf

cat /var/unbound/unbound.conf

And you will see this

# Forwarding
forward-zone:
        name: "."
        forward-tls-upstream: yes
        forward-addr: 1.1.1.1@853#cloudflare-dns.com
        forward-addr: 1.0.0.1@853#cloudflare-dns.com

then I undo the check marks and it is gone.

while what your doing is doing the same thing really - it makes no sense that you would have to use the custom options to get those settings into your unbound.conf file

You really should be setting the name, or your not actually going to verify your talking to clouldflare.. Are you not doing that with custom?

Where are you putting in IPv6? I do see it in your output you posted.

And looks like you have stuff in there twice

forward-zone:

forward-addr: 1.0.0.1@853#cloudfare-dns.com

One would be with tls the other would not be.. You got something messed up that is for sure..

Your info might be easier to read if you used the code option for text so it in specific box vs just long running text..

pietsnot56 · Jan 21, 2023, 5:08 PM

@johnpoz said in Problem with DNS over TLS:

code option for text

"code option for text"
how or where can you chose this option?

```sometimes 
forward-addr: 1.1.1.1@853#cloudfare-dns.com
with #cloudfare-dns.com at the end

and in the custom settings :
forward-addr: 1.1.1.1@853``
without #cloudfare-dns.com.

can this help us to find the reason?

Thanks everybody,
I founded my error : a typo in the Dnsname!
This case can be closed.
