Even if you specify them by IP? I specifically redirect addresses like 8.8.8.8 to my pihole (at the router) to prevent cheeky applications circumventing it.

- tristor 5y agoI'm not certain, but I believe that would still work, because the lookup for the canary domain is done using the local resolver and if you are redirecting its configuration to your PiHole, the PiHole would respond. It sounds like you have a relatively unique network configuration, so I'd advise that you test this and share the results with all of us.
- zinekeller 5y agoNot OP, but yes, it should work (as long as you're talking plain DNS on port 53. Direct DoH, you're out of luck unless you want to DPI or block IPs (and if it's Cloudflare, it's block all of Cloudflare or allow their DoH version of 1.1.1.1).
- zinekeller 5y agoIt'll still work, check if use-application-dns.net returns NXDOMAIN.
