DNScrypt provides encryption from clients to upstream DNS servers. Encrypting this traffic prevents spying, spoofing, and other man in the middle attacks.
Installation
root # emerge dnscrypt-proxy
Configuration
By default opendns is used, although some opennic servers support dnscrypt.
/etc/conf.d/dnscrypt-proxy controls settings for DNScrypt. A list of resolvers has been compiled for use with DNScrypt.
/etc/resolv.conf - set dns server as dnscrypt-proxynameserver 127.0.0.1
Service
root # rc-update add dnscrypt-proxy default root # rc
Testing
If you're using opendns, this welcome page will tell if your encrypted or not.
If you're using any other encryption enabled dns servers, give them a leak test. they should only report the dns servers associated with the one you chosen from the list.
