/etc/hosts question
Hi All,
Fedora 37
bind-9.18.12-1.fc37.x86_64
I am running a caching DNS server on my computer.
I have the /etc/named.conf set to
# the following forwarders is Family Friendly Open
# DNS (no porn sites):
forwarders { 208.67.222.123; 208.67.220.123; };
Problem. Open DNS is specifically blocking
tor.bravesoftware.com, screwing up my
Brave Browser Private Windows with TOR.
The workaround is to temporarily switch to google
as my forwarder, and let Brave Browser download
the required Tor daemon, then switch back.
So, next time I need a new daemon, I thought of
just hard coding tor.bravesoftware.com into
/etc/hosts, but I do not have such a critter
in my system
Q1. that on purpose? Did Fedroa drop /etc/hosts?
Q2. If I created my own hosts, would it be read first
or after named?
Q3. Is there a way to hard code tor.bravesoftware.com
into named?
Many thanks,
-T
