Title: dnscrypt-proxy standalone "bind: permission denied" for port 53
Post by: gogolathome on February 05, 2020, 08:53:06 PM

I am trying to use dnscrypt-proxy as standalone with cloaking rules.
When I disable unbound and enter listen addresses of my interfaces and standard listen port 53 in dnscrypt-proxy I get this message: "[FATAL] listen udp :53: bind: permission denied"

Because it is a privileged port dnscrypt-proxy has a problem binding to it as it is not running with root privileges. How can I solve this without opening access for <1024 ports for non-root users?

Look at the second or third checkbox at the General Tab :)
