Magan – A DoH Server

• Centrino 7y ago
  Am I right that this is a forwarding, non-caching DNS server?
  • evuraan 7y ago
    Yes, currently these two variants don't cache; my primary use case was to use as source for PiHole/dnsmasq. I've a Python version in the works that would cache based on TTL.

      OK, thank you. I will keep following this project. I see two main reasons to run my own DNS server: privacy and performance. DoH sufficiently solves the privacy aspect, but for performance a caching mechanism is necessary.

        Good point. Can you pls give the Python3 variant a try? It supports caching: https://evuraan.info/evuraan/stuff/magan/magan.py.txt https://evuraan.info/evuraan/stuff/magan/magan.py.txt You'd need scapy for Python3: $ pip3 install scapy-python3 $ wget https://evuraan.info/evuraan/stuff/magan/magan.py.txt -O magan.py $ chmod 755 magan.py $ ./magan.py --help Usage: -h --help print this usage and exit -p --port alternate port to listen -v --version print version information and exit I'd love to hear your feedback, thanks!
