How long before they try and block https://root-servers.org/ https://root-servers.org/
or this is illegal:
Install dnsmasq if it's not already installed on your system.
Edit the dnsmasq configuration file, typically located at /etc/dnsmasq.conf.
Specify the root servers. You can find the current list of root servers from resources like the InterNIC website or the root-servers.org website. Add each root server to the configuration file using the server option:
server=/root-servers.net/
server=198.41.0.4 # a.root-servers.net
server=199.9.14.201 # b.root-servers.net
server=192.33.4.12 # c.root-servers.net
...
Replace the IP addresses with the actual IP addresses of the root servers.
Disable cache and no-resolv. Since you want dnsmasq to only query the root servers, you should disable caching and make sure dnsmasq does not read any other resolv file:
no-resolv
cache-size=0
Restart dnsmasq to apply the changes:
sudo systemctl restart dnsmasq
Test the configuration. Use dig or nslookup to test that your DNS queries are being resolved correctly.
