Default Local DNS Resolver Proposed for Fedora 23 Linux
|

After proposing the Cinnamon and Netizen Spins for the upcoming Fedora 23 Linux operating system, Jan Kurik comes with yet another interesting proposal, the addition of a default local DNS resolver.

The "Default Local DNS Resolver" proposal will be a system-wide change for Fedora Linux, as the need for a trusted Domain Name System Security Extensions (DNSSEC) validating local resolver running on 127.0.0.1:53 is currently in much higher than expected.
The implementation of a local DNS resolver in Fedora 23, which must be trusted for DNSSEC validations running on localhost on port 53, will be in the /etc/resolv.conf file, as the only name server entry. The trusted local resolved will then be used by the system for transitory name servers, as DNSSEC validation will be performed locally. Full Story |
