Securing DNS with DNScrypt

gistfile1.txt

# install on Arch: pacman -S dnscrypt-proxy

# run DNSCrypt as a daemonize service
# where `resolver name` could be found on this list
# https://github.com/jedisct1/dnscrypt-proxy/blob/master/dnscrypt-resolvers.csv
sudo dnscrypt-proxy --ephemeral-keys --resolver-name=[resolver name] --daemonize

# example of usage:
sudo dnscrypt-proxy --ephemeral-keys --resolver-name=opendns --daemonize

# lastly set your dns to direct to 127.0.0.1
# be sure your not running bind so it would not overlap the port
# set /etc/resolv.conf
