DNS Resolution Problem while Docker is starting #103

Closed keturo closed 2 years ago

keturo commented 2 years ago

I added a local DNS Server to the connection to start the initial connection with the local dns server. If i allow now the connection from the container to my local DNS server and block the connection to the public one (cloudflare, pia dns server, etc) the connection needs a lot of time to start. Could this be optimized?

Edit: As i see it tries on every DNS server to get a response, so reducing the DNS Server to only 2 or 3 makes everything faster. Best way would be if it uses the local address first.

Local DNS is blocked using iptables to prevent any potential IP leakage I am not planning on changing this

The interesting thing, the local dns is working for me when i set this up in the container with the variable. But it need some time to resolve the host name. I understand if you dont wanna enable this. I only like to use an encrypted DNS instead of udp/53 to communicate
