It looks as there some ongoing work for dnsmasq to implement DNSSEC, so maybe it could be combined sometime in the future. > More Info: > -- > DNSCrypt | OpenDNS > http://www.opendns.com/about/innovations/dnscrypt/ > > DNSCrypt > http://dnscrypt.org/ > -- > > At this point we are just looking into it, the dnscrypt-proxy 1.3.3 and > libsodium 0.4.5 packages would need to be added to our Buildroot which could > be a problem until it is tried. > > Would you use DNSCrypt ?

I use OpenDNS and I would definitely use it, and I also have some "security-minded" customers, who would use it as well. I would appreciate if we would include it into AstLinux. There is no official OpenWRT package yet, but I found this: http://wiki.openwrt.org/inbox/dnscrypt. > The dnscrypt-proxy package seems fairly lightweight, implementation would be > a simple checkbox and automatically configuring dnsmasq to use the defined > static DNS entries directly or via dnscrypt-proxy listening on 127.0.0.2 . > > Thanks for any feedback. > > Lonnie Michael http://www.mksolutions.info
