23.1 Legacy Series / Re: Unbound DNS Reporting | Whitelisting not working
« on: July 14, 2023, 11:04:01 pm »
Sorry for the delay, I was rolling around in the dirt with my kids (camping) the last several days.
Yes, 1.1.1.1 is the only DNS server configures. If I use 127.0.0.1 and resolve google.com in the GUI, I get nothing. No response. No error.
What do you have under these sections?
Obviously the Query Forward needed to be configured. So I checked the "use system DNS servers" and google.com (and penthouse.com) is now resolving. I had this checked before, but stated "I'm a bit all over the place".
So I enabled DNSBL for porn, and penthouse.com now returns 0.0.0.0 as expected.
Then I added penthouse.com to the whitelist and it is resolving again, while other sites still return 0.0.0.0 - as expected.
So I must have had some wonky setting somewhere that I 'fixed' by factory resetting. And once we realized I needed to add the forward back in - viola. All is well in my kingdom.
Thank you for the patience and support.
You're only getting a response from 1.1.1.1? Nothing from 127.0.0.1? Is 1.1.1.1 the only DNS you have configured?
What happens if you put 127.0.0.1 in the Server box and repeat the lookups?

What do you have under these sections?
System -> Settings -> General -> Networking section
Just the 1.1.1.1 - everything else is blank or unchecked.
Services -> Unbound -> Query Forwarding
Nothing
Services -> Unbound -> DNS over TLS
Nothing
