<p>Just another day I seted up my own private dns server that has adblocking ( and other stuff ) using pihole and uses unbound as a resolver. To safelly connect to the dns server I&rsquo;m using DNS over HTTPS for my browser&rsquo;s and HTTPS over TLS for stuffy for my whole desktop and private dns in android ( Android has DoH support but only for google and cloudflare right now).

<p>Just another day I seted up my own private dns server that has adblocking ( and
other stuff ) using pihole and uses unbound as a resolver. To safelly connect to
the dns server I&rsquo;m using DNS over HTTPS for my browser&rsquo;s and HTTPS over TLS for
stuffy for my whole desktop and private dns in android ( Android has DoH support
but only for google and cloudflare right now). Let&rsquo;s get on to setting
everything up</p>

<p>Let&rsquo;s start with setting up pihole. I will be installing it with their script on a debian system for easier unbound integration ( unbound doesn&rsquo;t have an official docker container ).</p>
<p>I recommend to read up on the pihole&rsquo;s docs on exactly how to install it since pihole get&rsquo;s frequent updates. <a href="https://docs.pi-hole.net/main/basic-install/">DOCS</a></p>
<p>I recommend you to install the admin page for easier managmenet and ability to change the upstream dns server ( needed for changing it to unbound later on ). To be able to access the admin page I use an nginx configuration like this one.</p>

<p>For this part I will just link the pi-hole&rsquo;s unbound documentation because it is the most correct one and updated as things change regulary.

<h2 id="3-dns-over-tls">3. DNS over TLS</h2>
<p>For dns over tls you need to first have a ssl certificate. I recommend on using certbot to generate one with this command <code>certbot --nginx -d dot.example.com</code>.</p>
<p>Next you will need a reverse proxy, in my case I use nginx. You will need to add this configuration to your main nginx config located at <code>/etc/nginx/nginx.conf</code>. <strong>Make sure to add this outside of the http block and change example.com to your domain</strong></p>
