116.202.176.26
This is a DNS service run by LibreOps.
The goal is to offer a public encrypted DNS service that people can use to maintain the secrecy of their DNS traffic, but also circumvent censorship.
We already support DNS over HTTPS and DNS over TLS.
Endpoint https://doh.libredns.gr/dns-query
DNS over HTTPS (DoH) is best to be configured and used on applications, namely browsers.
At the moment the only browser that has sufficient support is Firefox. To configure Firefox:
General > Network Settings > Settings
Enable DNS over HTTPS
https://doh.libredns.gr/dns-query
Blocking Ads and Trackers
We also offer an endpoint that blocks a crowdsourced list of known advertisement and tracking domains.
Endpoint https://doh.libredns.gr/ads
IP 116.202.176.26
Port 853
Domain dot.libredns.gr
DNS over TLS (DoT) is best to be configured globally for the entire operating system.
A few clients already support the protocol, and the easiest way is to configure systemd to use it:
/etc/systemd/resolved.conf
with you favorite editor and sudo rights.
[Resolve]
DNS=116.202.176.26
FallbackDNS=127.0.0.1 ::1
DNSOverTLS=yes
If you are on systemd < 243, then useopportunistic
instead ofyes
.
One of the motives for creating this service was to build a DNS server that will keep a minimum amount of (meta)data and only the bare minimum that is required for its core functionality, in respect to users privacy.
